Archibald You must be quackers!  More info | Mar 22, 2016 17:14 | #1 I have an opportunity to go to Shark Valley in S. Florida tomorrow, but am wondering what the bird situation is there. Today at the Anhinga Trail there were few birds - and I understand it has been like that for a couple months. Canon R5 and R7, assorted Canon lenses, Sony RX100, Pentax Spotmatic F

CaptBob Cream of the Crop More info | Mar 30, 2016 19:25 | #4 water quality and levels are probably the best answer to that. wading birds like falling water in the glades and low tides along the coast. we had a super wet winter and a dry summer- that's the opposite of ideal. birds can go anywhere and I'm convinced if they are not where they usually are they have found a better spot. keep looking and watching local reports. it is really good out west now canon R3, 1DXmk2, 600 F4 L IS mk2,100-400 L IS mk2, 16-35 F4 L IS, 24-105 F4L, canon 1.4xmk3, 2xmk3

Water levels at the Anhinga trail were indeed very high, and were last year too, when there were also few birds. That must be the explanation.
