Big Bird

The birds out in the Everglades are really quite amazing.  So many of them are large and dominating.  The Great Blue Heron, the Great White Egret, the White Ibis, the Ahinga, and Hawks.

I love to watch them, especially the Ibis.  They like to walk around in large groups with their large, orange curved beaks.

Most of the time I only see the Heron and the Egret driving in on Snake road, but last week I saw a White Egret hanging out on our carpool car.  He needed a spot to sit where he could check out what was going on at the THPO.  He let me watch him for awhile and then got annoyed and flew away.  I could hear his wings flap they were so large.
