It only took me a month, but I finally saw my first wild alligator…

I have no clue how this situation started… we happened upon this Honeycomb Cowfish (Acanthostracion polygonia) during one of the dives, and at first I noticed that something was hanging out of its mouth… or so I thought. I don’t know if the cowfish tried…
Ok – this is one of those subjects that I am quite excited to have found and managed not only good photos but also some rather good video. I still feel like I should have taken more, but I guess I’ll keep looking to find…
Alright! Another Friday and this week is a triple feature! Last week after meeting Rob and Jen at the Blue Heron Bridge, they invited me to join them for a shark dive charter the next day. They sealed the deal by telling me that there…
Frogfish are one of those really interesting fish. I got to see a couple in Bali, which reminds me that I still need to share the second one… Anyway, this Striated Frogfish (Antennarius striatus) sat nicely for a bunch of photos, but I still would…
So these seem to be the most common ducks I’ve been seeing around here… I guess most other ducks are up north right now.

All the bird photos from the other day came from a place called Winding Waters Natural Area which is about 10 minutes away from where I’m staying (yes, that was part of the reason why I chose to stay where I did). At over 500…
This first sign I photographed at a rest area along my drive to Florida (I can’t remember if it was in Georgia or Florida), but as soon as I saw it I got a little chuckle… (sorry, I should have gotten closer to make it…
This Common Octopus was putting up some nice spikey skin textures during my first night dive at Blue Heron Bridge.
Just a couple bird photos today…
While in Savannah, I visited Wormsloe Historic Site, which one of the main features is a 1.5 mile long Oak Avenue lines with live oaks covered in Spanish moss…
I had originally planned on stopping at the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge on my drive down. There is a wildlife drive there that I thought would be worth checking out, but apparently they are doing maintenance on most of the trails. I was able to…
Ok – this was supposed to be the post from the other day that got bumped in favor of the Striped Bumblebee Shrimp. This is another subject I found at Colleton State Park in South Carolina. I did not have any intention or anticipation of…
