Except for the middle of summer, Florida attracts birders and bird lovers. In addition to the many species found in our three climate areas (temperate, semi-tropical, and tropical), Spring and Fall migrations bring many other visitors to our area.
Our winter residents prepare to leave for their breeding grounds this time of year, but we enjoy many species year round. Our photo story this week shows some of my favorites.
My photography style for birds evolved over the years. My early shots are portraits which I still enjoy and exhibit. Lately however, I find myself trying to capture an individual of a species in their surroundings or showing movements to give a more complete story of the bird. With nature photography, growth and improvement in the craft coincides with increased knowledge and more detailed observations of species and their behavior. Both advances improve the end result.
