'safe haven'

This tiny wildlife refuge, full of mosquitoe's, proofed to be a 'safe haven' for many shorebirds, and to my surprise while marveling at them, a small flock of Great Kiskadee's flew into to a bush near me. I was able to pull off a few shots when a couple of joggers came running down the wooden walkway to where I was standing at the viewing platform and there they went...I never saw another one after this...I felt very lucky!

 

I think I had a total count of 19 lifers in the very little time I spent birding, not all of them postable, but enough to make me know I want a return trip...needed more time!
