Spring of 19 - #7 - Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands

Wednesday April 24th, 2019 - Part 1 of 2
I have split today into two blogs as there are too many pictures for one.
We started the day at the Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands.  Boy, oh boy......so many pictures!!!!
There's lots of birds, usually I would look them up and find out what they are, but there's just too many.  I found a photographers site and tried to match up some of them but it's really guesswork.  So, if you know the names of any of them please, please let me know.





Red Wing Blackbird


Birds in nests on top of the stumps

Like the reflection in the water on this one

Alligator, the only one we saw here.  He was right out in the open water.

Birds in the trees

What's this hiding in the tree
Just casually strolling across the road
It was a fun hour or so driving through.  We decided to drive back over to Canaveral Lock to see if it was open.  We were in luck and I'll tell you all about that in the next blog.
