Tri-colored Heron ~ In the Wild ~ Florida Wetlands U.S.A.
***********************************************************************************
The Tricolored or Louisiana Heron does not swim but wades in deep water. Audubon called this bird "Lady of the Water" because of its grace and beauty. It resembles the Great Blue Heron but is much smaller and more delicate. Its white belly clearly distinguishes it from all other Herons. It strides briskly through the water, sometimes running after fish and catching them with a thrust of the bill. This action is so fast that it can only be caught with a shutter speed of 1/4000th of a second! Their chicks have a reddish coat but turn blue with age.
The name Louisiana Heron is very misleading because it also lives in coastal states from North Carolina to Texas, and especially in Florida.

Another year - another busy Spring nesting season
Wood Stork - Florida Wetlands - Palm Beach County U.S.A.
The Wood Storks are really making a comeback after
being on the endangered species list a few years ago.

***************************************************************************
The wood stork is a large American wading bird in the stork family. It appears all white on the ground, with blackish-gray legs and pink feet. In flight, the trailing edge of the wings is black. The head is dark brown with a bald, black face, and the thick down-curved bill is dusky yellow. Juvenile birds are a duller version of the adult, generally browner on the neck, and with a paler bill. The bare head and the long bill, which can measure up to ten inches in length, render the wood stork distinctive from other large waders in its range.
