Fourteen of us met at the first lake and got Limpkin, Sandhill Crane, Horned & Pied-billed Grebes,Great, Tricolored Egrets. Next stop larger lake and boat ramp with a greater number of species. Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher, Kinglets, House Wrens, Cedar Waxwings, Parulas, Palm, Yellow-rumped, Black & White, three species of Vireo, a "congregation" of White Ibis (200 +) flew over. The exciting part of the trip was viewing an adult Bald Eagle chasing an Osprey for his fish and being joined by two other Eagles. The Osprey dropped the fish and the Bald Eagle caught it. The full list of 51 species can be seen at this eBird link.
