many of these are familiar to me .. Cormorant Anhinga Wood stork Roseate Spoonbill but - left bottom corner - any idea ? this is as clear a shot as was taken .. have checked them all .. edited in: www.picmonkey.com © All Rights Reserved - 1 note -

Wood Stork on watch - rarely moved - kept guard over the group on the right - this is only part of the rookery - and - yes, this is one time - wish the lens could capture more - edited in: www.picmonkey.com © All rights reserved

.. don't ask these guys .. either left per the Gull .. or right according to the Cormorants .. ask ten people directions .. to get from point A to point B .. just might get 10 different versions cropped/signed/framed in: www.picmonkey.com © All Rights Reserved

- only a couple of Wood Storks here - but, the Rookery is full of them - a noisy.. chatty place - all the young want food - Cormorant young are quite vocal, too - NOW ! NOW is the time for food .. - unedited (c) All Rights Reserved

only part.. Another Link in the Chain .. one nest to multiple nests of the Rookery .. Wood stork nests .. Cormorants .. Anhingas .. Snowy Egrets .. haven't seen Herons or Roseatte Spoonbills -- yet .. been digitally tracking this area for 3 yrs now .. the birds are all increasing in numbers .. hopefully that equates with more chick survival .. this is a hand held shot.. will go back with tripod .. but, this is a really noisy place .. chicks with mouths open .. voicing displeasure at not being .. fed quickly enough ? www.picmonkey.com © All Rights Reserved ..just going by 2012 photos, there are more Wood storks this year; just a visual via photos, by no means do I count them..
