Photographing the wading birds at Bunche Beach Preserve in Florida provided so many unique viewpoints even though I didn't cover much distance. This particular morning the tide was way out when I arrived for sunrise, so I had a chance to wander the exposed tidal flats and shoot back toward the mangrove-shrouded shoreline. It was fun to find a few tidal pool filled with shallow still water that was drawing in the wading birds, which provided a what felt like a fairly unique perspective to be shooting across water toward the beach without being on a boat.
It was a pleasure to observe this ibis cruising back and forth across the pool, and eventually it found what it was looking for with the small crab being tossed from bill to gullet in the photograph below.
Hi Pat, its been ages. I thought you had stopped blogging. I did for a long while but during this troubled time I thought I would take it up again.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see your immaculate images again, you have a special talent.
Best regards
Stay safe
Dave
Hi Dave, great to hear from you! I've been off an on with blogging over the last few years. I'd love to be more consistent, but often challenging to regularly find the time. These are troubling times, and I wish you and your family all the best.
DeleteHi Pat
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking time to reply. You should get more on (than off), I agree with you regarding the time needed to blog. I have decided to make time now, keeping it simple and short but trying to be more regular this year. Anyway keep safe and well, and catch your wonderful images soon I hope
Dave
