Fifteen birders enjoyed this new area in Gainesville. And what a grand day it was. Limpkins, Limpkins, Limpkins and more Limpkins. I thought Circle B had Limpkins, but Sweetwater beats out Circle B. We didn't have as many species as two weeks ago, but close. We racked up 50 in a period of about 3 hours. We just strolled along. The highlight for most was the Great White Heron. Several got to see life birds today. The complete list of 50 species can be seen at this link. The Great White has lighter colored legs than the Great Egret. The other photo is a Black-crowned Night Heron Juvenile.
