A Cool Quiet AM in Estero

Arriving at Estero at 7:20 with hope of seeing the Rose-throated Becard was dashed almost immediately.  No birds were out meaning the hawks were looking for their breakfast.  Even putting out seeds and citrus did not entice the birds. The Becard doesn't show up at the feeders but he doesn't show with a hawks around.  Interesting conversations with birders, the morning sun and a few good birds made the morning a success.
