Wow got our chapter !!!!! This will be fun
Water level at Anhinga Trail is high but still good shooting and cooperative birds Lots of Anhingas still in full breeding color Several nests with chicks a couple of which will be fledging soon Little Greens starting to get into breeding plumage and being a terror around the back side
The usual GBH and cormorants fishing Have found the place better in the morning Oh lots of macro opportunities
At the entrance by the main visitor's center (before paying) there is a GHO with one chick at the parking lot Left side of building last parking row second tree from the left
Flamingo is crawling with Ospreys Many nests accessible and with chicks Just drive around and can't miss them
Also there is one Peleated woodpecker nest If you are leaving from the marina drive straight out as if you are going to Echo pond As soon as you turn there is a large tree with the top missing and a Y shape (left part of y missing) He is under the bend Would be a morning shot but can do any time since it is shaded at other times Will be high key in afternoon
Also lots of white pelicans flying through the marina
