The Northern Cardinal

(click on photo for larger view)

The Northern Cardinal is a beautiful bird, but a difficult bird to photograph, it just "bobs" and "weaves" all over the place.

The Mallard Duck

This Mallard mother duck with her new family kept a close tie between her and her small chicks.

Florida Flowers

I was about a day late in photographing this flower, had I been a little earlier the deterioration would not be present.

Lake Tarpon

The East end of "Lake Tarpon" is a favorite place to fish, but also a great place to photograph.

Sunshine Skyway Bridge

Another photograph of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge taken from the "South Prier" that use to be the bridge before it was knock down by a passing ship!

The American Alligator

This "big guy" was hanging out at the point on a small lake, and kept coming back each day for the same sunning..

The Yellow-Crowned Night-Heron

Even the birds had to cool down on this day in the hot sun.  They open up their wings so they can "cool" down.

The American Alligator

This green algae sure makes this photograph stand out and just love shooting this area.

Sunshine Skyway Bridge

...And then there is the "Sunshine Skyway Bridge" located South of St. Petersburg, and just Southwest of Tampa.  When the "haze" is present it's very difficult to photograph the bridge, and usually it is hazy.

Lately, however, we have been having trouble with forest fires and this has caused more trouble in photographing the bridge.
