An Altamira Oriole in the parking islands started us off with some great
views. There are plenty of Great Kiskadees and Green Jays along the
resaca, but It took some time before we were rewarded with an active pair
of Green Kingfishers. We finished the walk with a very nice White-tailed
Kite circling overhead.
