One of the pleasures of living in Florida is the variety of birds who dwell or visit the Sunshine State. In my suburban neighborhood, I can see all kinds of birds, from backyard species like crows or jays to birds of prey. Most interesting to me are wading birds like the anhinga, cormorant, egrets, herons, white ibis, and the magnificent wood stork (our only native stork).
