10,000 Birds

The Marbled Godwit ( Limosa fedoa ) in the photo above, shown landing at Fort De Soto County Park in Pinellas County, Florida, is used with permission from my friend Mia McPherson of On The Wing Photography fame. I didn’t get a shot of the Marbled Godwit near Seal Rocks in flight but I wanted you to be able to see the bird with wings outstretched so Mia came to my rescue.

10,000 Birds

DECEMBER 16, 2015

It’s the time of the year again, where I leave the sometimes ephemeral Austral summer of New Zealand for a foreign clime. This year I’ve chosen to forsake the summer entirely and head to my parent’s home in Cheshire in England. The skies are grey, the temperatures low, but the house at least is warm (a trick New Zealand has yet to master), the food plentiful and the birds good.
