Only last week I was discussing the Everglades with someone. They said they were finished from a birding perspective which I thought really sad to hear but looking at your haul from Orlando, Florida still has lots to offer.

@Dave Williamsand @michael-ibk- you're too kind - these Bittern shots look like smudge shots on the lens ! I'm hoping to get to Otmoor later in the year for something better.    Either way o

138. Osprey, Orlando, March

 

I came so close to that classic shot of an Osprey entering the water but in the end the bird struck just out of line of sight and he had to make do with the getaway shot

150. Greater Yellowlegs, Orlando, March

 

I struggle to tell the greater vs. lesser yellowlegs apart, but I think the bill length and streaking on the neck makes this one a Greater Yellowlegs.

151. Lesser Yellowlegs, Orlando, March

 

I think the greyish wash on the neck, combined with the bill length makes this a Lesser Yellowlegs.

That's it from Orlando. Overall, I photographed 47 species in about 5hrs from 7-12. Not bad and again I would highly recommend a trip to Merritt, for anyone in the area.

 

Oh and there are a lot of these!
