Birds, Words, Pics + TV
November was a busy month for photography for me, and I am still going through my pictures.
There were raptors and shorebirds, little birds and big birds, and one photo-friendly bobcat I came across during my travels.
But I feel I am getting behind in posting photos, so here’s a collection of bird (and feline) photos from different spots across Central Florida, including Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive and Orlando Greenwood Urban Wetlands
Last weekend I had another opportunity to get pictures of an American Kestrel, which this time was a little closer to a trail at the Orlando Wetlands.
It was typical 2024 Florida winter weather when I visited Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge on Saturday, Jan. 27. It was sunny, then cloudy, then rainy, then cloudy, then sunny, etc. Rinse and repeat, as they say.
This endangered Whooping crane – one of about 400-600 that still exist in the wild – lives where a subdivision is gobbling up its habitat.
