Jan. 27, 2015 St. Andews State Park Florida Carolina Chickadee

Arrived yesterday afternoon to this state park at Panama City Beach on the "Emerald Coast".  Now we are talking...the beach woman in me is happy!  Good bye forest..hello white sand. This beach has been named one of the best in USA.

Our site is Bay front with two palm trees.  Quite nice, have to admit  we are good "pickers" from the internet sites.  

My palm trees and water view!

The glorious Fl sun is shining and a bit of a cool breeze, 65degrees and flawless blue skies. Nice that this park is both wooded for birding and gulf front for beaching.  Biked and walked the beach this AM and will be doing some serious "shooting" later. 

Got a tour of a brandy new Airstream 25' trailer this morning. Ontario, Canada owners out on their first trip. Made in Ohio!  Thing of beauty and quite pricey.   Baby boomers are loving them and there was just a story on nightly news this week about the company expanding to produce 75 a week! Hand done, all of them.  

Southern Variety:  Carolina Chickadee
Slightly different from our Black-Capped Chickadee in Ohio
I can go into the difference: pretty boring. :)
