as promised for @great-and-small (and also because I Need to share) the beginning of all my Florida birds and creatures: behold, a bird montage! I encountered 20 new species which is amazing, and this is a small sample of them (subsequent posts will have Special Guys!! including some herps). in order from top to bottom, left to right for each row: northern mockingbird; boat-tailed grackle; limpkin; wood storks; laughing gulls; white ibis; little blue heron; carolina wren; black vulture; anhinga.

the point and shoot canon I have proved to be pretty damn good with the zoom and exposure, with just a bit of touch ups afterwards :)

#animals #my stuff #birds #anhinga #limpkin #northern mockingbird #boat tailed grackle #wood stork #laughing gull #white ibis #little blue heron #carolina wren #black vulture #some fun stories about some of these:#I saw plenty of mature white ibises but funny enough that was the only photo I ended up taking of one?#and its a juvie #the limpkin entry in merlin says its cries are otherworldly and damn they do be right. i heard it before i saw it #lovely bird though #the little blue heron was right in my friend's suburb area and we all got startled when we realized it was right there #it didnt let me get non-motion-blur photos unfortunately #the carolina wren was sunning itself on a boardwalk before we startled it! wish i got photos of that it was so cute #anhingas... sure are Creatures. if that photo doesnt exemplify that #for great-and-small: i probably wont tag you for all of the rest of my posts so you dont get spammed #aaaand hopefully tumblr doesnt absolutely destroy the quality of the photos
