Wonderful pose Troy love the breeding colors and BG. How was the activity at Gatorland were there plenty of birds and does the new zip line interfere with photography

Thank you all. There are a lot of great egrets. Some have eggs and some are not having the peak breeding plumage yet. A lot of cormorants but they are high up. Saw some spoonbills, woodstorks, snowy egrets and anhingas.
No, the zip line is not interfering with photography.
