Some family members used to stay at Sanibel every year, but never mentioned the wildlife refuge. Their visits were always in summer when the kids were out of school but the website says January to March are the best birding times. <BR/><BR/>You make Florida look very appealing! <BR/><BR/>Annie at the Annie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-8548619282435630142008-01-31T22:01:00.000-05:002008-01-31T22:01:00.000-05:00kate: Thanks for looking through my photographs an...kate: Thanks for looking through my photographs and for the kind comments. The refuge was a peaceful respite and so many species of migrating birds are happy there.<BR/><BR/>lisa: You are too funny. In all the fun I'm having with learning to photograph landscaping and nature I really don't do such a great job with people. I keep practicing though- ask my family- I drive them crazy most of the Meemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-88892133007700770772008-01-31T21:02:00.000-05:002008-01-31T21:02:00.000-05:00so i'm thinking you need to go into business and s...so i'm thinking you need to go into business and start selling your amazing photography.<BR/><BR/>can you come takes pics of my little one for her 3-year photo?MacKenzie Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04908021351863444144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-56946635408406179202008-01-30T23:23:00.000-05:002008-01-30T23:23:00.000-05:00Your photographs were outstanding - I loved the Gr...Your photographs were outstanding - I loved the Great Blue Heron series.

Those foggy mornings can be so frustrating!<BR/><BR/>I'm kinda partial to the black-bellies, as well. It won't be long till they look quite different in their breeding plumage.<BR/><BR/>You did a great job capturing the hyper little turnstone. And was that a spoonbill in the white pelican shot?SophieMaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09396958301555933308noreply@blogger.com
