I enjoyed my January visit with the Whooping Crane in Osceola County so much, I went back through my photos to see if there were others I wanted to share. And of course there were some.
This has to be the rarest bird I have ever photographed, so why not see some more pictures of this endangered species?

My most recent trip to the Orlando Wetlands on Sunday, August 6, started by spotting a group of 16 (!) baby Black-bellied Whistling Ducks and ended with photographs of an elusive Belted Kingfisher.
I woke up fairly early and decided to head to the Orlando Wetlands. It was a cool, cloudy morning – but apparently I was in a fog. I was so disappointed in my photos I had to go back again later and try again.
