Many thanks to Canon Bob for the introduction to this lovely place. Here's a selection of the photos I took that day. I've promised myself I'll go back there one day when I get better at this bird photography game!! C&C always welcome :D

Well Sheryl, you have lots of subjects to practice on. Herons, pelicans and even skimmers, and best of all some good light. :)

Thanks Mitch. Unfortunately, as I live in England and it's cold, wet and dark most of the time at the moment, I'll have to save up my pennies to get back over the Florida as soon as possible!!

even skimmers

Doh, I didn't even realise we'd taken shots of skimmers until you just mentioned this and I've read another post talking about them... My partner got some wonderful BIF shots of several of them, will try and persuade him to put them up at some stage!

Very nice. I like #4. It has a busy city sidewalk feel to it.

Thanks John, it was lovely to be surrounded by such a wide variety of our feathered friends, seemingly unworried by our presence!
