Well, my weekly bird count today went well. We had 7 Spoonbills within 3 feet of the boardwalk which caused quite a paparazzi flurry for awhile. There were also over a dozen Purple Gallinules out and about. Right at the nature center a set of Limpkin parents were foraging. I watched one of them break open a large snail and feed it to the 5 Limpkin chicks. It tore the snail into tiny bits and let the chicks fight for the buffet.
Don't forget, if you're curious about the bird counts you can find them here:
