Thanks to buddy, and local Orlando, Florida photographer Jack Rogers for helping us find both the Barred owl chick shown here, and the superb view of the Osprey nest!
Great fun shooting with Jack, and brilliant opportunities!

Amazing to watch this female, as she leaves her tiny chick in the nest, and heads out to some nearby trees for some nest building materials.
Love Florida!

Using the D850 magnification.
Heavy crop, and I am sure glad I didn't bye a 600
or an 800mm lens. 200-400 vr1 is all good.

We waited a bit for this chance.. and wow, the best possible light along with the whole fish instead of the usual "headless fish". Luck was with us once again!!
Thanks to Jack Rogers for all the help in Florida!

Just booked!
Back south on Wednesday morning, up and gone around
2:30 am! Hope I get a couple of hours sleep!
Here is a shot from our last tour to FLA, a Red-bellied woodpecker, taken near Orlando. This bird was preparing its nest right beside a dock used for fishing boats. About 12 feet from the dock!
Standing as still as possible, the woodpecker carried on with its business, virtually ignoring us, and doing quite a nice job cleaning out the bottom of the nest hole.
Hoping the Purple gallinules are busy in nesting, and maybe some spoonies nesting too at the alligator farm at St. Augustine - just north of our hotel a few hours drive! We should see some wonderful coloured plumage, and so many birds!
Should be fun with the D850 this time, a great birding test for the camera. - real nature in superb Florida!
Looking forward to all the tolls too! (ouch!) .

Florida's beauty!
Bird life in Florida is truly amazing. From December through to April, the nesting, migration, and sheer quantity of birds is wonderful for a photographer.
A superb adventure, so many different environments, so much fun, great exercise along with a work-out for your camera and lens.
