Ditch 13 Birding Hot Spots Tour December 9

We had an awesome trip out to Sebastian Inlet today. Thanks so much to Jessica for joining us. Here are a few highlights of our trip.

 We started off with great looks at Northern Gannets.
A Ruddy Turnstone posed nice.
My nom! You can't has!
Sometimes I pretend to be a decent photographer, but most times the birds just make it so easy. This Wood Stork posed so perfect for me, I didn't even have to crop. I love the way she is showing off her dainty little pink toes.
These 4 pictures tell a story:

"Hey, I bet I can make a goofier face than you!"
"Ha. Go for it."
 ...
"TA DA!!!"

"Dang, you win."
 (Singing:) "I am the champion, I am the champion, of the Woooooooorrrrrllllld!"
These Willets were almost impossible to see because they blended in with the rocks so well. I honestly wasn't sure if I had them in the picture till I downloaded it.
 Woo-hoo! This was my 319th photographic life bird, Pomerine Jaeger.
 Another story series:

"Gee mom and dad, I can't wait till I get big and my beak turns orange like yours!"
 {sigh} "So do you want to tell him he's adopted, or should we just buy him a copy of Sibley and let him figure it out himself?"
Looking forward to our next tour. Thank so much to Nick at Ditch 13 Gallery and Gifts for helping us promote our tours.
