We had a pretty good morning at Orlando Wetlands Park. We didn’t see anything terribly unusual, but there were some fun photographic moments. Well, not so fun for rabbits. One of the first sights we saw was a Red-shouldered Hawk with a rabbit (perhaps a Marsh Hare). We also saw several Purple Gallinules, and one was pretty close, allowing me to get some photos. On the way back, we saw a Sora and a Sandhill Crane fledgling walking with his parents near by.
