Awesome tour, Melanie!
Enjoyed seeing all the neat birds and everything else. The baby Gallinules are the cutest. I like how you put them near the end of the tour.
It's been a long times since I've seen Coots! Miss the funny sound they make too, when they sound like a squeaky toy.
The Blue Heron laying on the ground is "Anting", like I was telling you about on our monthly picture forum. Here's wiki's info on anting:

Great pictures of everything. That must have been kinda eerie to see the spray painting that morning...
and then the doves! Oh, by the way, LOVED that picture of the mourning dove.
