Visiting The Rookery at Venice again there is this Great Egret nest on the edge of the “island” in full view. For the first time I saw Great Egret chicks – how startlingly strange they look with their green skin an white “punk” plumage around their head and necks. And those big eyes, which when […]

All good images have their anchor points which give you the context for the whole image. However, I am at the TICO Warbird Airshow, the air show flying hasn’t started yet, but there is a magnificent Florida Sky! I call them Florida skies because I have only seen them in Florida, there appears to be […]

It was good to be back on the Fishing Pier at Venice, Florida. It just typifies the Sea Shore here. Very busy with lots of people fishing, many youngsters – girls as well as boys, but all age groups. I wonder how many took their supper home? I was waiting for the buzzer in my […]

It is not often these days you get an opportunity to see an F-104 Starfighter – twice! Yes it performed the first two days at the TICO Warbird Airshow, unfortunately on the third day it was too windy so the F-104 performed along the taxiways for the appreciative crowds. I certainly hadn’t seen a Strfighter in […]

This morning at The Rookery in Venice, Florida, a Tricolored Heron entertained me for quite a time as it edged its way around the banks of the pond looking for its breakfast. Its gorgeous blue beak and it richly coloured plumage caught my attention so I was captivated and watched it as it patiently worked […]

Yesterday morning I went back to Honeymoon Island State Park. Mainly because I had heard the day before that there was a pair of Great Horned Owls that had two chicks that had fledged – AND also I had such a great day there on Saturday. On Saturday I had spent some time moving slowly […]

This is my first visit to Fort DeSoto County Park in Pinellas County, Florida. So this is really only day 3 of my new project – shooting wildlife, in particular birds. It is at last warm (last week on the East side of Florida it was very cold and windy) with a pleasant breeze taking […]
