Joyous &/or quiet and reflective & long, weekend!
(It is a long & "memorial' weekend in the U.S. with Monday a holiday)
Meanwhile, from the non-human swamps...
### A short clip from the Everglades.
All is calm and serene away from 'civilization'.. even the blackbird is signalling, 'chill', no worries.

More 'under construction'.... Latest iteration @ http://www.fenichel.com/corkscrew.shtml
Spotted by a sharp-eyed ranger ("there's a baby!"), a nest atop a speed sign marker in the Everglades.

Here's a short (10sec) clip of one I saw (lots of), up close & personal, in the Everglades.

Everglades Sampler #2
Sorry they're pared down to medium size (the dragonfly is really cool full-sized)
but I've got limited bandwidth/space. Still sorting through what I've got, as I squeeze camera cards into laptop.
These here are all right in the Everglades, the 'city' or nearby Big Cypress National Preserve - home to the hemisphere's largest Cypress stand. I did some botanical sampling too, air plants/bromeliads. Still to come: sunsets in the marsh.
Wading birds are rather sparse state-wide just now, compared to normal (due to climate/weather) and though I'd have liked to find a few colorful smaller birds (like buntings), I just missed them. (Not an 'early bird'.) Tried out some new angles on sunsets. We'll see.
Happy #Justice Day America, or so it may begin... Hope and spring, spring eternal.

'Our #coastal #seas are a #rich #community of #plants and #animals #working #together, all of which are #vital to the #health of our #planet and #humanity. From fearsome #sharks to lowly #urchins, 90 percent of #marine #creatures live in coastal #waters. #Protecting these #habitats is a battle humanity must win. Coastal seas count for 7% of our #ocean, yet they are responsible for 95% of the #world’s marine #production – these are our #planet’s #fishing #grounds. Despite their importance to humanity, few are protected. Yet wherever effective #protection #exists, #life bounces back in #huge #abundance. The #wildlife will #thrive, and we will catch more #fish.'
