This was another fantastic visit to Everglades National Park. There was a lot of bird and gator activity in the park today, including several baby gators. And, something I don't usually see, wood storks that were very near to spectators. There were a lot of great blue herons, little blue herons, green herons (my personal favorite), egrets, of course lots of anhingas, and a real treat -- a limpkin looking for snails. The lazy alligators were just lying around waiting for some little varmint to fall in their mouths! I also got some good shots of a great blue heron who had just caught a big fish! He was very pleased with his lunch.
