Another dip into the archives… this time for an assortment from Bryce Canyon… I’ll be heading out on the road again here in a few more weeks, so you’ll likely be getting some more landscape stuff again soon… though, I haven’t heard anyone complaining about…
While we’re on the subject of ducks… Here are a few shots of a pair of Harlequin Ducks I managed to photograph at Keystone Jetty on Whidbey Island. I had seen a post that someone else saw them there and figured I would try getting…
More from the archives… These shots of Green-winged Teals are from a visit to Arcata Marshes during my trip through California.
Dipping into the archives a bit to share some remaining photos from my Madagascar collection. I wouldn’t mind visiting there again some day, such a unique place.
And now for some videos… The first video is from the encounter with the sea otter mom and her baby that I got to watch for a while at the Breakwater jetty, it was a bit rainy and windy, but I did the best I…

I’ve got a couple days worth of Sea Otter photos, and they’re just going to get more and more adorable, so let’s get to it…
On another non-diving day in Monterey, we took a short trip to Pinnacles National Park. We didn’t have a ton of time, so I suggested we hike the Balconies Cliffs and Cave Trail which was a rather cool trail with a nice section through some…
A less common gallinule, I only got to see a couple of these Grey-headed Swamphens while in Florida…
I’m pretty sure this is a couple Greater Yellowlegs (there are also Lesser Yellowlegs, but the Merlin app says they are rare for the area I took this photo). The shallow and calm waters worked perfectly for some nice reflection shots…
Some fiddler crabs doing what fiddler crabs do… Filmed 2021.05.22 at Wormsloe in Savannah, GA.
Though not flashy, these Ruddy Ducks were another “new to me” species I photographed at Arcata Marshes in California. The first three are males in their winter colors (apparently their bills turn a baby blue color during breeding season) and the last one is either…
