Some White Bird Pictures

Here are a few pictures of white wading birds I've come across in my travels (click to enlarge)

Geeez, how did he get in there.....

Viera Wetlands Wildflowers and Grass

Update:
These photos were taken a few years ago (how time flies) - it seems during my recent visit all the flowers are gone! I am assuming that Brevard County has lost their interest in maintaining the beautiful flowers which once were so abundant around the berms. I guess they assume that people will come just to drive around the berms, sad!

Original Entry -
While out walking around the Viera Wetlands the other day I came across a mess of wildflowers and some pretty grass. Here are a few of the many, many pictures I took that day. Even being "shade blind" I still enjoy the bueaty of nature! Just double-click on a picture to see the screen size version. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.

My Favorite Tree - the Cypress

As anyone who has viewed any of my pictures will tell you, I take a lot of pictures of Cypress Trees. I see so much in these trees as I'm out and around in Florida. Not only are many of trees very unique in their own way, many of the "knees" are also works of art. I feel bad when I see cypress mulch in the stores, I can not imagine that there are enough trees out there to support the mulch industry. The Tosohatchee WMA has one of the largest cypress forest around. It is located mainly along James Creek. Some of the prettiest cypress trees can be found along the St Johns River between RT50 and RT528. That area has provided me with some wonderful pictures. Below are a few of the pictures of many that I have taken while out and around. Just double click on a picture to see the screen size version. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

River Otter

While in the Bull Creek WMA I was lucky to spot this River Otter doing his thing. There were a few of them frolicking around in Bull Creek. They were right off the Florida Trail at the bridges - GPS coords - N28 06.391 W80 55.809
