Orlando Wetlands Park today

We went out there this morning to see the juvenile Roseate spoonbills and Black Crowned night herons in a hammock at the end of Bobcat trail.
This was my second opportunity to use my Tamron 150-600mm zoom lens.

You are doing well with that new lens! All beautiful shots.

BTW, that is not a "Immature Snowy egret" but is in fact a juvenile Little Blue Heron.

Thanks Frank. Great group of photos.

Thanks Ira and Tim.  I changed the photo ID to Little Blue Heron.  That ID was very difficult for me.  I found an interesting ID check list from Sibley and have included it in the below internet site link.
