When it comes to winged critters, I'm not just about pelicans. Here's a sampling of some of the more interesting birds I've managed to capture on film, including a bunch of Florida's egrets. The snowy egret above is out for an early morning stroll on the beach in Naples, FL in 1999.
I cropped this to death to get rid of as much of the #$%& light leak as I could. The bird is a cormorant, and I like to pretend the "submerged cable" sign actually says "no cormorants." This is also Naples, FL - 1999.
I know the shot isn't great, but it's the only one I have of the extremely cool frigatebird. Key West, FL - 2000.
Ostriches! Tennessee or southwestern Virginia, I think - 1998.
Emu!?! South-central PA - 1998.
Tiny black bird atop Florida East Coast Railway signal - St. Augustine, FL - 1999.
Some kind of egret - St. Augustine, FL - 1999.
"I'm taller." "No, I'm taller!" Snowy egrets at Fort De Soto Park - St. Petersburg, FL - 1999.
"I just got settled. Don't make me fly away. This is my favorite post." Snowy egret - Naples, FL - 1999.
Snowy egrets in flight over St. Augustine, FL - 1999. Had no idea egrets flew in "V" formations, just like Canada geese. Cool.Thanks for taking a look. Back soon with more stuff...
