So Stuart and I did the Merritt Island bird trip - they were in completely different spots than ever before - lots of birds. Stuart I am sure will post a few soon as well. We watched a bunch of waders chase after a small flock of merganser ducks which where chasing minnows. I will get some of those up soon.
I was able to bucket list the Scrub Jay, not sure what hawks these are.

These should give an idea of the action that was going on. This was in the first 1/4 mile of the black water bird refuge on Merritt Island - Oh yea, we had a great time, anytime you can shoot w/ Stuart do so - a lot of fun. He went back the next morning and I saw a couple of the early morning shots and he inspired me to go early a.m. (arrgh of a drive but....) I hope he posts them soon - they looked great.

I think in the last one here there are either 6 or 7 different species.
