As it would be, a trip south has given me some new birds. They may be common to the locals but I really enjoyed seeing and photographing them. A Moore Hen, a Palm Warbler (I think not sure), a Little Blue Heron and an Anhinga. Also photographed some old favorites, the Great Blue Heron, a Great White Egret and a Boat-tailed Grackle.

really nice shots of the heron and anhinga! can't help with the warbler i.d. - i think i've only seen the yellow-rumped here. the moorhen is cool! i was going to guess purple gallinule. :)
Larry, fantastic series of Florida birds! The "Sunshine State" is one of my favorite places to photograph birds. Love the Anhinga shots with the moss in the background, all are especially beautiful, though. Terrific post, as always!
Great pictures of the wonder birds, my favourite is the Anhinga, it will fly in the air and water.
Hi Larry..Wow these are wonderful...you really had some good finds!!
The Anhinga..the first shot is magnificant...it looks like a work of art with the pattern on its back and the moss..very nice!!

Beautiful series. I especially like the Anhinga!
Nice shots LArry. Always interesting to see bird different from those in our own area.
Thanks T, you are right, but the locals seem to favor moorhen sooo that was the reason for the label.
Thank you Julie, I felt very fortunate to catch the Anhinga.
Thanks Bob.
Thank you Grace.

Hey Joe, you're right finding and seeing new sights is exciting.
