The 2011 Awards event was a great success. We will soon be posting images on our blog. The winners of the 2010 Awards are posted on our website, but we have just uploaded an HD video that displays some of our Highly Honored photographers and our new celebrity icon, the GEICO gecko!

We went to one of the local strawberry fields, on a stormy day, and they also have u-pick-flowers, which was very convenient to do bunches of flowers with sky background. Lying on the ground, my intention was to do HDRs, but it was too windy, even for straigt photos, which ended up being fine, giving… Continue reading Let’s go Flowers!

Last week I had the opportunity to go to Wako, our familiar term for Wakodahatchee Wetlands, in Palm Beach, taking my Miami-Dade Birds class.

Shark Valley did not have the usual array of white birds, but the Red… Continue reading SE Florida update

There are some birds around already, although not… Continue reading Osprey at the Lake

Sunday afternoon, Alfred and I went scouting to Anhinga Trail, the most popular location at Everglades National Park. This year we noticed a bit more activity than in the last coupe of years, although the water levels are still high, there are a lot of Cormorants and Anhingas, many of these in full breeding plumage,… Continue reading Anhinga Trail report
