People say there are no seasons in Florida. I think it's that the seasonal cues are a little different from what people are used to.
All the osprey have fledged and fly around,
chasing fish...
Great blue herons, young and old, spend more time in the sunlight,
Redheads, mergansers, scaups, scoters, Canada geese, and other fowl join the fun.
The unmistakable buffleheads fly in.
The flocks of dunlin join the fray. See, there are seasons -- the chicks are grown, the turtles are all hatched, the wind blows a little more briskly and fall IS here!

International Coastal Clean-Up!
The 2008 Coastal Clean-Up on Santa Rosa Island was a great success, but we can work together to make everyday a Coastal Clean-up Day... Help us keep our beaches beautiful!

I always think of water cycle as giving us so many seasonal clues here in Florida. But your right: the birds do the same, in many ways, and by which ones you see.
