This morning I dropped by Orlando Wetlands Park for about an hour before heading to work. It was fun to see a Roseate Spoonbill and three American White Pelicans, though they did not want to pose in good light for me. The most interesting find, though, was a Belted Kingfisher, which is unusual here this time of year.

Also fun to find was a young Sandhill Crane; it's nearly full grown and getting new feathers. All the normal wading bird were there, and a Cattle Egret flew by in good light for a photo. Snowy Egrets were flying low over the water picking fish out of the water. At one point, it appeared to be running on top of the water.
