Lynn & Ron Klowden, along with our Birdwatching experts, our Son and Daughter-in-law, Gregg Klowden & Cathy Olsen, did a Father's Day 2016 birding outing. We drove the trails through the Sugar Cane Fields and the Rice fields in the Lake Okeechobee area and also went to the Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge-Marsh Trail in Palm Beach County.
I was just looking for nice photo opportunities and Cathy/Gregg were out to find some very specific species. Both happend! Almost all goals were achieved on this outing, along with some neat bonus birds and other interesting wildlife and nature. It was a great learning experience for me to find some new birds and birding areas in Florida. And... a Great time with my Wife and Kids... Can you ask for more?
Below are some of the birds we saw... no photo of the Barn Owl that Cathy had us creep up on in an old, abandoned building... but we did see it!
