Variety at Kapok Park

Glossy ibis yawning.

Hawk hiding in a tree.


You can always count on an anhinga sitting in a park.



Cowbird in a small tree.


Two juvenile moorhens heading towards me.


Juvenile moorhens hanging together.
I stopped by Kapok Park after work in between the rain storms last week. I didn't think I'd see much there but I did manage to find a few birds. The glossy ibis was a nice surprise. I have never seen them there before. There were several moorhen families with juveniles together. I didn't see very many ducks and the park is usually filled with them. I saw the hawk for about a second and then it flew off and headed out of the park. I looked for the great horned owls but could not find them. Hopefully they'll be back soon and we'll have another baby this winter.
