    Day at Orlando Wetlands

    Went to the Orlando Wetlands Saturday at Dawn. Only saw the sun come up when I spotted the Deer, after that it was nothing but clouds, mist & Fog. Can't drive here...so off on a 3 mile hike...gear and all!
    Brief sun light in the back ground.....Family out for a stroll

    Very nice series. I like the series shot of the duck. Was he landing and then decided not to? - TF

    Was a funny thing...each Duck wanted to land but on the tree but once one touched the tree he kept on going and the next one did the same thing and so on!!!

    Black Belied Whistling Ducks...They are all over the place here in Florida. I was just in Costa Rica last month and they are all over that Country as well.
