I spent the entire morning, from about 8:15 until 2 pm, at the Viera Wetlands and the “Click Ponds” that start near the entrance going the other direction. Had wonderful looks at a river otter and a family of raccoons, as well as plenty of birds. My total is now 157 thanks to these new species:

1. Mottled Duck
2. Blue-winged Teal
3. Green-winged Teal
4. Ring-necked Duck
5. Wild Turkey
6. American Bittern
7. Least Bittern
8. Glossy Ibis
