Some recent Florida birding with the NEX

About a week or so, I shared some birds-in-flight and ducks-in-flight shots with the NEX-5N and 55-210mm lens plus DH1758 teleextender.  This time, I'll share some of the non-flying birds, plus one reptile for fun.  These are all from the past few weeks down in my part of South Florida...

Starting with a reptile - an alligator grabbing a sun nap on a half-submerged tree

A black-bellied whistling duck, having a little bath

A strongly backlit palm warbler on top of a tree

A moorhen cruising by in the reflective waters

A tricolor heron on the hunt through the reeds and shallows

A wee pied-billed grebe still for a moment

Blue-winged teal cruising by

Green heron hanging out in a tree above the waters

An eastern phoebe hopping from branch to branch

Comments, questions, critique welcomed as always.  Hope you enjoyed a little Florida sunshine and warm weather, where the birds come to winter!
