I had to wait until the temperature reached 60 to walk this morning. For most of my was it was overcast, cool and dull, as you can see from the photos. There were birds this morning and building crowds. It's going to be another busy day in the park.

The Glossy Ibis was at the beach along with a skittish flock of Killdeer . I usually only see a pair in the park. The Little Blue was attracting attention from the walkers. The Great Blue is coming into breeding colors. All of the flower photos are from the Fragrance Garden (Ti plant, Lavender). I don't know the name of the red flower.

I head a Robin in in the woods behind my condo this morning. They are occasional winter visitors to southwest Florida. Sometimes we get flock in the thousands.
