Birds in the Nature Preserve

Birds in the Nature Preserve – Just a few of the birds I saw while driving around the nature preserve. A lot of the usual ones like the herons and a few ducks now and than. We are a little late for migration time so there were not as many birds as earlier in the year I am sure.

Most of them were quite far away from where we were standing. I found this photo below interesting as the alligator swam past the Anhinga bird perched on the dead tree.

We did find at one end of the lake a lot of bird feathers. The alligators do eat birds.

Looks like this bird blind got hit by a storm and ripped the roof right off of it. Closed for the season.

  1. Wow, the damage to the bird blind! That’s interesting that the Anhinga bird seems oblivious to the alligator as I’m sure the alligator could have used its tail as support and lunged toward that bird with its mouthful of teeth. I’m thinking the bird was either teasing the alligator or didn’t see it as it could have flown away. The alligators eat the bigger waterfowl like herons or egrets? They don’t look like they have much meat on their bones, but still …. you see it all Sandra.
