A new adventure today at a new wildlife refuge

 Hey hey its AL with a special edition to my blog today with a new adventure that I took today at wildlife Refuge in Hilton head called Pickney's Wildlife Refuge.

I caught several new species of birds that are never found in central North Carolina where I am from.


I was able to a get a Tri Colored Heron picture. Try Colored Herons are really cool herons to photograph and still did not find the bird I wanted to take pictures of the Wood Stork, so hopefully next time I am here I can get pictures of these bird, the wood storks. 

This a Belted Kingfisher , that I also see in Central North Carolina where I currently reside. 

Belted Kingfishers are wading birds as well and they eat fish just like the other wading birds. 




This is an Anhinga which is also a wading bird that we don't have in central North Carolina. But I am really happy , I was able to catch this bird here at the Wildlife Refuge. 


Theses birds are really cool to photograph especially at this wildlife refuge.






This is an American Coot which I also photographed today at the wildlife refuge, getting different views of it.






This is American Alligator, which I also got photographs of it while it was sleeping on the bank. These alligators were really cool to photograph. I have not seen an Alligator in Central North Carolina yet.





I had a great experience at a fun time at this new wildlife Refuge my mentor, Al D recommended to me and I will hopefully will return with my friend from Florida so we finally find Wood Storks so I can photograph them here and see what else we can spot here in the future.
