Purple Gallinules, surprise viewings... Page1 of at least 5 more to come

I finally struck... well, purple, after years of looking in a lot of wrong places.
That picture was unique enough to earn a spot in my Birding Scoops.
It was then and there I realized I should concentrate on marshes with spreads
of fire aka alligator plants like in the image above. It’s an ideal refuge that provides
ample food. Many more pages coming soon...
