No tent this time, school was out and we couldn’t find a few feet where to put up the tent in any campground in the area. Boring motel room it was. Just overnight, so no biggie.
We drove up to the Kissimmee/Orlando area and worked the less travelled roads. It was partly cloudy, with moments of light and moments of total overcast, which made it possible to start photographing the minute we got there, around 2PM. We had white an amazing afternoon. Of course, to make up for the next morning, which was cool and rainy and a total loss is you ask me.
It was worth the trip, though, had here’s some form the first day.


















you got some great pics of the owl; I know him well. He only gave me a few flight ops but not as clean as yours.
I didn’t see the cara cara though.
you got all of this in one day? I need to move to Flordia !
great work Fabs
I think you do better work “sleeping” in a motel than in a tent! YES – I wanna move to Florida too. Beautiful images. Thanks for sharing your day.
Fabs,
YOU ARE AMAZING! THE PHOTOS ARE EXCELLENT!!!
Wish I was there!!
BEST,
Michael
Looks like it was worth the trip to me. Great owl shots. Was that Jim N’s Great Horned?
Did you call him forth?
Thanks you all.
Susan, I believe this is the son of JNs Owl. Yes, we used audio.
Fantastic results for what it seems a really, really productive photographic day. I really can´t believe how much cooperative are the birds in Florida. Love the soft light and and the flights… oh, I almost forget to mention the great portrait of the limpkin (?)… did I mentioned the nice crane images? 🙂
Thanks you all! 🙂
al needs to post more pics. looks like you smoked him that trip!!!!!! 🙂
Stunning GHO verticals, and a great Limpkin shot, Fabs! All of these brighten my day, which is otherwise cold and snowy, so TFS!
