Went to Hilton Head a few weeks ago and was able to get some photography done. Took this on one of our walks on the beach. I was hoping to capture some close-ups of the gulls and other wildlife that evening.

One Leg
Took this photograph just before Christmas. It wasn’t until I was editing it that I noticed he was standing on one leg. Not sure if he is missing the other leg or if he just was standing on one. Since I’ve seen and photographed him before I checked some of the earlier photographs and he was only on one leg then also. I think he is missing a leg.
Its Been A While
It’s been a while since I posted, summer is not my favorite time to take photographs. But I did get a few birds that visit the feeders and bird bath in my yard. One of the better ones that I got.
Swamp
Yes, it has been a while since I posted and I am finally getting around to looking at some photographs I recently took. The one above is a pond/swamp in Fort Clinch State Park on Amelia Island in Florida. This was taken while we were hiking the Willow Pond Nature Trail. Although we didn’t see any alligators here, we did see one later as we got closer to the end. At first, it looked like a log, but looking closer, it was an alligator.
Turtles!
This photograph was taken the same day as my previous post. I don’t often see turtles in this lake, but these two must have been taking advantage of the sunny day. As I tried to get closer they swam away.
Geese
In addition to photographing landscapes, I enjoy photographing wildlife. Birds seem easy to capture since they are in the open the most. I photographed these two at a local park.
Hawk
Another photograph taken the same day as my last post. Heard this guy first and then was surprised to see him in a tree near the path I was on. I was able to get three photographs of him with this being the one I liked best.
Ducks in the Creek
Taken last spring on one of my hikes. I was drawn to the two ducks swimming in the water and the bright green reflections from the trees.
A Goose!
The detail in the neck feathers and that he appears to be posing just for this shot.
The Couple
This was taken the same day as the previous post, and again with my new lens. Saw this group of Mallards resting new a lake in the city that I live. Not sure if these two are actually a couple, more than likely they are.
