Description
This photo was taken at the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine,Fl. Native herons, egrets, ibis, spoonbills and wood storks seek the security of their 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. Photographers achieve award-winning shots here every year. Visit from April through July to see the most nesting activity with the birds in full breeding plumage.
