Day 3-Part 1: Peeps!

On Wednesday, our plan was to visit some beaches and then see the Burrowing Owls of Cape Coral. We stopped on the Causeway to Sanibel and found some great peeps!

This first image is not a peep, but he was our reason for stopping in the first place!

Snowy Egret







Sanderling: I love the lighting on this morning!







Willet: Another image I really liked as the angle with the sun really brought out beautiful colors in the water.







Semipalmated Plover: Somewhat colored like a Killdeer but much less common.







Whimbrel: A very interesting beak but a whole lot smaller than the Ibis.








Ruddy Turnstone: What beautiful markings!






Royal Tern and baby: The baby begged the whole time, and mom just put it on ignore! I love the hairdos!



Monday: Burrowing Owls!
