I followed my wife to Orlando, Florida. She has a business meeting and I could stay in the hotel with her. This is a large convention hotel with hundreds of rooms, several swimming pools and a golf course attached to it.
After one of my wife's events, I caught up with her and we walked outside to a small pond next to the golf course. Berry wanted to see an alligator but none appeared. We are experienced birders, so we did indeed see several nice birds as we walked behind the convention hotel.
In the weeds in the pond next to the cart path, there was a Limpkin (Aramus guarauna). This one had avoided being eaten by an alligator.
Also, during this walk around the convention center, we saw four Sandhill Cranes, two White Ibises, one Little Blue Heron and several Common Moorhens.
