My first trip to the Holey Lands in west palm  early Saturday am with Barbara. The other old birder was being old and sleeping in. A lot of walking on gravel roads fighting off horseflies almost unbearable towards the end of our outing but did manage to see quit a few things. and the best we spotted the deer while heading out in the car the other two were camera shy. I think this will be the last trip to the glades till fall.
