Vero Beach, FL ~ West Regional WTF Wetlands ~ Snail Kites

Spent an hour checking out the Snail Kites.  They sure are fun to watch.  Hard to get good photos as the soar around the skies.  There were at least 6-8 of them with adults and juveniles mixed together.

What a great 1/2 hour I spend watching 3 adult and one juvenile Snail Kites hunting over the waters at this wetlands.  This was my first time there and it really was wonderful.  I would definitely return to bird here in the future.

This Snail Kite is banded.

This is the juvenile.
