Glorious Florida Day - yes folks, 10th of January
Excellent Medieval Faire 
The Joust - Our guy, Oren, was on the losing side. This is WWF Jousting - or WJF, still I have to wonder how it sounds inside that metal outfit when whacked with the "sword".
No Faire is complete without a duck in a costume. Note the bloomers.
And then, out of NOWHERE was WARREN!!! This is an Anhinga. It swims under water to spear a fish with its beak. Has no oil on its feathers so it can stay submerged. Has to dry its wings in the sun so it can fly better.
Turns out this is a girl Anhinga (so not really Warren). Reason being, the males are done drying out this late in the evening. SHE is more interested in eating and cannot rely on the warmth of the sun as much to dry her. I can relate - I love a good meal.....
