Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge

Always a GREAT place to visit to see a LOT of different birds.  Especially nice to see is the roseate spoonbill; you don't see those just anywhere.

These are just of few of the birds I saw on the Black Point Wildlife Drive - a must do!  Even though it was very chilly today, it was still a gorgeous day!

Before going across the causeway, I saw this awesome little dude sitting on a wire.


Awwwww.   This fella was in need of a mani/pedi!


A handsome mergansar duck and his lovely wife.


See no evil.  Hear no evil.  Speak no evil.


BEAUTIFUL roseate spoonbills
