Yes, more Whooping Crane photos

Roger Simmons, February 6, 2025February 5, 2025

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?

If you want to learn more about Whooping Cranes and the efforts to save the species, you can visit the International Crane Foundation here.

One day, two trips and lots of birds at Orlando Wetlands

October 22, 2023October 22, 2023

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.
