drove down to the Wachodahatchee Wetlands with SteveS. Great place, boardwalk all thru it, babies in nests.. saw a little greenie fishing: then in the middle of this clump of some type of greenerie was a Least Bittern nest with babies. I had to manually focus into the nest for some, then the baby decided to come out and say hello. Some guy there with a camera doubted I would get a shot of the chick in the nest. Thats why god invented MANUAL FOCUS:Angel: : I believe this is a sora rail: lots of nests with babies in various ages.. feeding time; plenty of stilts, even a nest with eggs ( I'll post that another time) there were turtles, purple gallinules and gators as well. I plan to go back and get some more baby shots..
Looks like you had a great day Harris!! :smile: Lots of stellar shots for sure! Thanks for sharing, Bill
Good stuff Harris, esp the baby Greenie I didn't get! Way to steal my thunder, now I got nothing to post!
Oh Harris, these are wonderful shots. That baby bittern is adorable, great capture in difficult conditions.
Thanks all, it was a nice place to "discover". I plan to go back. Alex, that would be nice, to hook up with you there.
O my these are really good photos and you didn't even have to get your feet wet. Great series of photos and nature arround them. Lou
Wow, these are terrific! I love the ones of the little baby....you did great with that manual focus! Nailed him! Lucky you, to have such a wonderful place to shoot!
