Masked Stranger…my introduction to the Wood Stork
Welcome to Daytona Beach, Florida! What a sunrise huh? While here on business and a short vacation, I am taking advantage of every opportunity to snap photos of the wonderful wildlife and scenery here. We lived here “once upon a time” and miss it a lot. This visit we are very fortunate to be staying on the beach. I caught this beautiful sunrise and was awed with the seagulls lined along the shore, greeting the new day. In just two short days, I have had the joy of photographing several new birds that I have not previously seen; and I … Continue reading Masked Stranger…my introduction to the Wood Stork

We made friends, saw amazing wildlife, lived simply and fully, all the while not fully comprehending the magic of … Continue reading Costa Rica Hotels

Slip Sliding Away
I always liked that song by Paul Simon. Kind of fun. I don’t think he had this guy in mind when he sang it though.. This is one of those “other” creatures I mentioned before. You know the ones that are awesomely beautiful and rare to just randomly run into, but that you certainly aren’t inclined to want to snuggle up with. I know, I know, all you snake lovers out there would disagree. I leave you to your cold blooded pets. I have a healthy respect and appreciation for snakes as well as a true love of other reptilian … Continue reading Slip Sliding Away
