Sand Cranes at Payne's Prairie





We arrived at the park about 10 am and the weather was just beautiful in the mid 80's. Can you believe this is winter in Florida. We started at the beginning of the park, and the sounds of the birds was audible from the moment we got out of the car. This could not even prepare us for the outragous amount of birds that we would see and hear.

The trails led us on a trip of about 3-4 miles in to the marsh area, where we saw dozens of alligators of every size sunning them selves on the banks of the trail. There were alligators of every shape and size from little babies to 14 foot gators

I have so many photos of the day to share with you!
