This past weekend I was at the Viera Wetlands, located in Viera, Florida. It is one of my favorites places to photograph. This time of year the activity really gets going and it did not disappoint! The ducks haved started to arrive, as in hooded mergansers, blue winged teals and northern shovelers. The crested caracara’s are back setting up their nests as are numerous pairs of great blue herons. It is also a favorite place to see american and least bitterns. There are also a couple bald eagle nests close by, so they make appearances also. Here are just a few images from the weekend.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
