Birds-Eye View of Florida

| No Comments

My family and I spent a long weekend in Melbourne, Florida end of March 2011.

Missouri bird-watching is a favorite pastime of mine, so it was interesting to see how well birds have been integrated into Florida's landscape.

Even Space Coast Stadium, Viera, Florida's field featured a beautiful Osprey flying over and nesting on top of field lights:

It was a spring training baseball game so it doesn't count that St. Louis Cardinals lost to Washington Nationals 3-2.


At Kennedy Space Center, this beautiful Boat-tailed Grackle seemed to be hitching a ride on a space capsule:

Next, a few shots from Merritt Island Wildlife Preserve, where the Kennedy Space Center is located.
