Coming In For A Landing

Great Blue At Lunch

I was a little obsessive in shooting this Great Blue Heron trying to down an enormous fish! You can see the original of the shot above and one hundred and fort-nine other pictures of the event in a Picasa Web Album I created. If you do, viewing it as a slide show is recommended, and you'll have an option to speed up the time between slides. Look At Great Blue

The Great Blue Escape (Or Not)

A Redhead In Celebration

I went to Celebration this morning and decided to walk a trail I've been driving past every time I go there. There are trails all over the town, and apparently they ultimately lead to the lake in the downtown area.

1) The beginning of the trail I took - a cement walkway.
2) Wetlands are bridged by wooden walkways.
3) A beautiful woodpecker that I came upon suddenly - she was at the bottom of a big pine when I rounded the bend, and I scared her. She landed on the tree you see here and I took a quick shot before she flew off. (The subject is more important than the quality of the photo! LOL)
4) The trails lead into neighborhoods, many with parks and ponds. This burned out house was by a pond where I found this ...
5) Great Blue Heron, standing very still in the water. He didn't move the entire time I was there. You can see the water is dirtied by the ash from the fire.

Breakfast With Blue

Kissimmee Lakefront Scenes

1) Boats docked near the Kissimmee Breakwater, on beautiful Lake Toho, Florida.
2) Airboat used to bring tourists up close and personal with alligators and other lake wildlife.
3) Are they shooting fish out there?
4) Fishing buddies! She catches them, throws them back in, then the Great Blue Heron catches them.
5) Great Blue Heron.
