Amazing Wakotahatchee Wetlands

                                                                     Little Green Heron

      Today there were an unusual amount of little green herons out on the hunt for mosquito fish.




Yellow-headed Blackbird

This was an especially amazing find for Wakotahatchee Wetlands because Yellow-headed blackbirds are very rare in the state of Florida and are not usually found east of Louisiana.



Purple Swamp Hen

This is my "Sasquatch" photo of a purple swamp hen which can be easily mistaken for a purple gallenule.  They are a much larger introduced species that somewhat resembles a flying purple chicken.





A Nesting Anhinga




Moorhen

I don't think he was pleased to be so close to the alligator.
