Birds, Words, Pics + TV
I call them “the regulars.” For these birds, the Orlando Wetlands is like the bar on the old TV show “Cheers,” because everybody knows their names.
They are the hawks, herons, cranes and other types of birds who hang out at the wetlands year-round. They’re so common that sometimes it’s easy to take for granted their residency at the park.
So, here’s to these birds that we see a lot – but who are always fun to photograph.
Last weekend I had another opportunity to get pictures of an American Kestrel, which this time was a little closer to a trail at the Orlando Wetlands.
Of course, I had to pull over, make my way through some brush and get to the pond to photograph these amazing pink birds.
In the continental U.S.’ southern-most city, there many great places to go birding – including conventional and unconventional places.
