Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary Pictures (Wildlife) Continued

The bird pictured in the previous post is a Grey Heron. There were many other birds at the Corkscrew Sanctuary, but their nests were stationed in areas that I could not get pictures of. On the path we walked, there was a list of the observable birds for that day. I saw the heron pictured, and some egret.

The family of tortoises was a very surprising find. The area they were in was very close to the area that the alligator was resting in. The alligator pictured looked to be between 9 and 12 feet long. It was resting on a ledge next to a small pond.
