Viera Wetlands, Merritt Island NWR and to other places!!
Day 3 was a very busy birding day! Almost whole day birding. I started off at Viera wetlands (also called Ritch Grissom Memorial Wetlands) in Viera it was a great start to the day. Then by noon I headed to see sume seabirds at Jetty Park Pier in Port Canaveral, nothing much there except paid 15$ to enter it (against 5$ if you are local!!). Then went down to Merritt Island NWR and drove through Black Point and BioLab road wildlife drives. The shorebirds by the end of BioLab road was great. Ended the day at a place called Parrish park just outside of Merritt Island NWR and was treated to almost more than 300 resting Black Skimmers, unfortunately didn't see them in flight!
