Last trip through Ding Darling

We had a bit of time before having to head to the airport today, so we took one last trip through Ding Darling Wildlife Management Area. We were well rewarded as you'll see. Little blue herons, yellow crowned night heron, anhingas, great white egrets, and osprey were among the major attractions. Despite a large number of people there were a large number of birds - probably because of it being low tide.
Currently sitting in the Houston airport waiting on our next flight home, so here are the prizes from today.
