Vacation

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm headed down to Florida for a week long vacation along the east coast.  I hopefully will be photographing lots of birds - many of which will shortly be here and some that are only seen down there (Roseate Spoonbill perhaps?!)  When I return I'll post some photos of my favorite shots from the trip - and will make an effort to include those true Long Islanders!

So, I leave you with this which I think is plenty appropriate given the fact that I'll be flying south!

beautiful birds

At first sight this appears quite a threatening creature, however the Keel-billed, Sulfur-breasted or Rainbow-billed Toucan, is actually a splendid sight to visualize. This South Yankee bird, the national bird of Belize, spends its time high up within the canopies of rain forests. These are nonetheless a lot of drop-dead attractive samples of what lengths Mother Nature goes to so the boys can attract the ladies. Blow-your-mind stunning is that the solely method that creatures like these will be accurately be described. it's actually could be a privilege to visualize them..flying birds

 

Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge

I've been spending quite a bit of time at Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge lately because of a fox den that is located in an area of grasslands that's easily accessible.  I'd never photographed a fox until this week so it's quite exciting for me.  As an added bonus, I've been able to photograph some birds in a new setting (since this area is not a place I've frequented much in the past).  As you can see above, I was lucky enough to photograph a Peregrine Falcon this past thursday (a female, based on size) at the mouth of the Carmans river via boat.  Today I spent a little time waiting for the fox (only 1 kit showed) so I spent the rest of the time photographing the birds that were hanging around.  Enjoy.
