Florida Birds

Florida has some beautiful birds.  I wanted to share some of my photos I captured during my vacation.

This is a beautiful sign near Mote Aquarium.  My bird photos are random shots in different areas we visited.

Brown Pelicans flying in formation.  I never got a close up of one.

All of these photos are of an Osprey.  The bird dived to get a fish.  He kept trying to steal my  husband’s bait fish that were hooked to the line.  He would grab the fish and fly off with it for a bit before he realized it was connected.  These birds are endangered.
