Yes, hundreds of chicks, but also many still to come - saw lots of eggs, particularly in heron nests, and spoonbills incubating eggs. #10131509Phyllis H. Burchett May 10, 2012

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
