Potpourri on the bird survey: 12-30-18




Double-crested Cormorant drying its wings (necessary because they have less preen oil than other birds, so their feathers can get soaked rather than shedding water like a duck’s)





Magnificent Frigatebirds (Male on the left, Juvenile on right)





Laughing Gull in winter plumage (No black head)





Interesting contrails 




Adult Brown Pelican





Fog, fog and more fog





The Iconic Don Cesar Resort on St Pete Beach





Our 2nd most common gull, Ring-billed Gull





Female Osprey (she has a speckled brown “necklace”)
