Birds scarce at Black Point Wildlife Drive – Water levels down
I visited Black Point Wildlife Drive at Meritt Island National Wildlife Refuge near Titusville, Florida this morning with my local Photography Interest Group. Central Florida’s recent lack of rainfall has dramatically affected the region. We saw small puddles in areas that are normally covered in water, birds and photographers. If you’re planning to visit this normally very photographer friendly place, be advised that it may take a while for the birds to return once the rains do. 
I did make a nice sunrise photograph (with a little help from the computer), and a few other “keepers”.
The rest of my photographs are posted here .

I’ve included a theory on what happened to the birds and why they aren’t back yet (as of early August).
