At Circle B Bar Reserve in Lakeland, Florida, we hiked 4 hours around the marshes looking for alligators (alligators coming next week!). Adding in our stops and photography, we spent 5-6 hours each day we were in the wetlands.
It was hard not to stop and watch everything, like this bird, who cleverly extracted a snail from the shell. (Om, nom nom…snail!)
Can you name the bird? Comment below with your guess.
Right or wrong, any guess enters you to win.
Two winners:
One of you will win Toucan Nest, a beautiful book of poems I’m currently reading, inspired by the Costa Rican Rainforest. This hardcover is signed for you by the author, Peggy Shumaker!
The second winner gets a candy bar which promotes the book!
Deadline: tomorrow (Saturday) 5pm.
Love, Marla
P.S. Have you seen this bird in the wild?
