My aunt and uncle keep a place on the bay in St. Petersburg, and we're fortunate enough to have spent some time there in the spring. Birds are plentiful along the gulf coast, including many species we see here in Minnesota during the summer. Most were shot with the second-generation Tamron 150-600mm on my trusty Canon 7D. As with my other species lists, this is a record of sightings. See just my best shots of Florida's birds.
