After Easter photos

About a week ago, we took a drive through Ding. I finally found some time to get the photos off of my camera so I could share. First is one of my favorites, a Black-Crowned Night Heron.

The Yellow-Crowned Night Herons were plentiful while getting their nests ready.

Waiting for hubby to bring home some building materials.

There he is with the right stuff!

This pretty little guy flew over and landed on the rail right beside me.

The female (brown neck) and male (black neck) anhinga were posing so nicely for me. The male has the mating plumage turquoise eyes.

That look when you are trying to be cool, but you stumble and then pull it back together.

Once he’d gotten his cool back on, the little blue heron in the white phase decided to go fishing.

A school of alligator gar were catching the light in the water at the culvert.

Many of you know that I’ve moved from Sanibel Island just over the causeway to Fort Myers. We have a lake behind our home with lots of wildlife to photograph. We will still go to Ding, so you will still see photos of all that is Wild On Sanibel. Following are some photos taken from my back yard in Fort Myers.

It’s so funny to catch birds flying overhead and scratching their face.
