Limpkin

Uploaded: January 31, 2010

Description

While walking on the trail at Seminole Park I saw this Limpkin up in a tree. He stayed there for a long time. There has been many baby limpkins born at the park. I'm sure they'll be more when the spring time comes.

Kay- It seems that everyone is into doing some bird pictures and I am so happy as they are such a joy with their colors and each one so unique. Have not seen one of these. It is so pretty and I love its features. You got a fabulous pose from him. I wanted to mention about your other picture with the fisheye lens. That is one I have been thinking about getting. Your picture sure makes me want to get one. Thing they would so much fun for different shots.
Have a great Sunday my friend. #8344290

Thank you everyone for your comments. I love to see them at the park. It's fun watching them get the shells and get the meat out of them. #8354321
