Cocoa, FL

The place where I am staying is along the Indian River just across from Cape Canaveral.  I love the location because it's centrally located for most of the birding areas I like to visit.  It also has it's own nice amount of birds with both hawks and Osprey passing overhead and coming in for a visit.  Last night when I arrived the Scaup were assessed in the hundreds.  According to Eden, they come every evening and leave the next morning.  Also everywhere are the Boat-tailed Grackles displaying.
