These are not spectacular technical pictures, but they were each pretty exciting. The first is a Painted Bunting that was drawing one hell of a crowd at the Merritt Island National Wildlife Reserve Visitor Center - let’s just say it is easy to get camera lens envy among that group. The second picture is a Roseate Spoonbill that was grazing around among a flock of egrets on the Black Point Wildlife Drive at Merritt Island NWR. These are both firsts for my official list, which is approaching 100. Very exciting. .
