Description
This photo was taken at The Alligator farm in St. Augustine,Flordia. It is just as the website describes: Native herons, egrets, ibis, spoonbills and wood storks seek the security of the Alligator Swamp to roost and raise their young. With hundreds of alligators swimming beneath the oak branches, the birds know their young are safe from tree-climbing predators. The wooden walkway allows for incredibly intimate views of Florida’s magnificent wading birds on their nests. Visit from April through July to see the most nesting activity with the birds in full breeding plumage. It is an exciting experience! You'll know it is Spring when you observe all the actvity associated with bringing a chick into the world!
