The Seaside Seabird Sanctuary is on a tiny strip of land on the Gulf Coast in Clearwater.  It looks after injured seabirds (and others). Aside from their permanent residents many local birds drop in - some former residents - for handouts.

Black-crowned night herons. All but the last image are drop-ins. The first picture is a juvenile which will eventually turned white and black.


One of their many white pelican residents. This one lost a wing in an accident
A black vulture drop-in

A resident  oyster catcher

Not sure of the story about these, but two moray eels in an aquarium at the sanctuary
