@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

Nice additions from Orlando!

I know nothing of American birds, but the White-faced Ibis appears to have a very red face. could it be a different species of Ibis?

I believe that it is an American white ibis, not that I have seen either!

A worthwhile trip.

Those early 'group' shots were fun. Spot the subject bird.

 

On 107 Avocets,  I think there were two, certainly one, subjects you did not count.

It’s good to be birding in an area where it is impossible to just get one species in your photo! I have fond memories of Merrit Island.

A very fruitful side trip. I thought that was such a great shot of the rather common moorhen. plenty of action from the egrets as well.

Thank you all. @TonyQand @Tdgraves- you're right. No idea why I put White-faced - I have seen them previously in Colorado but these images are American White Ibis. 

 

@Galana- I think I have individual photos of all the extra birds but maybe I'll check back in to see what extra you saw! :D

128. Short-billed Dowitcher, Orlando, March

 

Dowitcher's are notoriously difficult to tell apart (at least for me!), but I think these are short-billed.
