Sentinel of the waterway, reporting for duty! ✨ This Willet stands tall on its perch, ever watchful over the Everglades landscape. Gotta respect the decication!

Blending right in! The Green Heron can be surprisingly tricky to spot amidst the dense foliage. Found this one perfectly perched over the water and lily pads in the Everglades.
