New Year's Day photos

MERRITT ISLAND NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE - - We did our New Year's Day ritual by heading to Merritt Island. Actually, this was our third trip since we got back from Alaska. On the plus side the birds were out in large groups; on the minus side the weather was overcast and the light was mainly flat. Still, we managed some good pics. (Check Lydia's blog for more).

Above we have a collection of egrets who took off when spooked at a feed zone. The middle pic is an Ibis/Egret question of who has the best reflection. The Roseate Spoonbills in the bottom pic are getting ready for tonight's cold weather.
