Wood stork

We had planned to kayak amongst the mangroves today however strong wind and low tides prevented that so we visited wild life ponds instead on our 6 mile cycle ( after a 4 mile beach walk), saw loads of birds .....this was a new one to me and it was so self assured! It had an argument with a large egret. We also saw another alligator ( extra). Colder weather coming for my last 2 days sadly.
