Description

From yesterdays shoot. This young lady (ACCORDING TO THE BIRDERS who walked by ) was totally engrossed in building this nest . Located only about five feet off the boardwalk & just above it's deck level at Wakodahatchee Wetlands in Del Ray FL
Watched & shot for about 10 minutes and never once did she appear the lease bit concerned with all the people watching . She was in OVERDRIVE as far as the construction was concerned.
A VERY entertaining experience up so close ..

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND !!!!!

Well, I DID GRIN! But you know that I really did HIT the mark. You love nature, you love kids (especially those who have been reared RIGHT), and you are full of compassion. You can't fool ME!! And you haven't fooled your smart BP friends at large. Admit it!!! You're a GOOD guy! #10619567

Great capture Jack, it's amazing that she was not bothered by everyone around her, I bet it would be a different picture if she was sitting on some eggs. Have a great weekend Jack and enjoy the time you have left in sunny Florida. #10620493
