There was more rain than usual for about three weeks and the Wood Storks vanished.
Soon the rains stopped, the water in the ditches, ponds and fields began to recede and there they were again.
Where do they go?
How do they know?
Now some of the shore birds are exploiting the resource and one can see white ibis, brown ibis, egrets, cranes, roseate spoonbills and yes, the Wood Stork, sometimes all in the same shallow, engaging a sort of feeding frenzy, gobbling what they can while the water and food remains.
It is beautiful, fascinating!
BUT Wilma is comeing!
What will happen to the birds, the animals, and to us?
She is wandering about in the Carribean, growing stronger, weaker, threatening!
God is in control.
He is a great God.
Shalom Y'all
