Wako has been really wacko the last few days. With the upcoming Christmas holiday, all sorts of people are visiting their parents/grandparents. The security guard had to call the sheriff to help control people that were parking illegally and wouldn't listen to him. Anyway, lots of bike parking for me. Walked up the ramp, looked at the gazillion people and left. Never even thought about taking a shot.

Anyway, Green Cay isn't far, so that's where I wound up.

I was shooting this TriColor Heron

Some folks stopped. I told them they could walk by the heron, just don't look at it and it won't move. That worked for the first group, the second group didn't listen...

Safely on the ground, away from all the noisy folks.

Don't know if I'll ever get the correct id on these warblers. And Merlin was no help either.

I'm going with Palm.
