Sanibel Fallout (continued)

Black-billed Cuckoo and Veery

The Migratory Bird Fallout began on Sunday. On Monday, I filled my camera disk with pictures of beautiful birds. We returned on Tuesday (after a postponed trip to Harns Marsh) and saw even more including this rare and illusive Black-billed Cuckoo.

Black-billed Cuckoo

Veery
A Veery is more commonly heard than seen as they prefer hiding in the woods. He will not stay in Florida - he's heading north to New England or Canada.

I'm still going through my pictures and will continue to post more, so keep checking back!
