Search for the Groove-billed Ani
January 4, 2015 - My first lifer of 2015 was a Groove-billed Ani at the Lake Apopka Restoration Area. A foggy silly morning with friends... :)
Description | Lake Apopka hosts a myriad of bird and other wildlife. The wildlife drive is awesome! You ride around the trails in the air-conditioned comfort of your car and photograph whatever happens to be outside your window. |
Photography Advice | Take your longest lens for the birds and wildlife. Don’t forget a wide angle for scenic shots of the lake shore! Consider checking eBird for rare bird sightings before you go. Finish your day with sunset at Magnolia Park (the adjacent boat ramp is always open). |
