Just a walk in the park
Today was such a great day with 70 degree temps and lots of Sunshine so we took a walk along several of the trails at the park. Ran into some "local" wildlife and though I would share with everyone. Both the squirrel and the deer were quite close to us as you can see and showed very little fear of us as they are quite use to humans here in the park (which really helps with up close photos) The Moore Hens (bird in the water) were out in numbers at Gator lake (located in the park) and were busy swimming near shore and feeding. I can sit and watch them for hours ducking under and bobbing back up as they feed on the tender water vegetation. The Heron was hanging out at the boat ramp, standing on the fish cleaning station located there hoping for a free meal from a fisherman cleaning his catch. As I type this now, I can see the fish cleaning station from here and its surrounded by Brown Pelicans eating fish scraps from a local fisherman cleaning his fish. So now as the sun starts to set, we can truly say its been a great day here at the park.
