Homosassa Wildlife Preserve

Our second trip to the Wildlife Preserve at Homosassa, Florida, was just as exciting as the first visit we enjoyed in 2010.

 This is the first time I've seen baby Pelicans--cute, but they still have a face only a mother can love.

         There were beautiful flamingos--extremely colorful at this time of year.

 As we cruised up the river toward the preserve, we noticed this Great Blue Heron watching over his territory.

 Since the area is a preserve and all animals are protected, alligators are plentiful.  I think this one needs an orthodontist.

This fledgling hawk was curious about the camera shutter clicking away.

I took dozens of images, and these represent only a few of the birds.  There were also reptiles, wolves, bobcats, Bald Eagles, Spoonbills, Owls, and I could go on and on.  If you're in the area, don't miss this attraction.

Just another beautiful day in Sunny Florida!
