On Sanibel Island, the JN Darling Nat. Wildlife Refuge takes up a sizable fraction of the island. The Ding Darling Drive is a great way to see shore birds. The merganser was in one of the larger lagoons.

A rare occasion where the Barred Owl appeared near the boardwalk of the Corkscrew Swamp. He was too close for my 400mm that I was shooting with. I had to switch to the 100-400mm.

This is the nest site of a White-tailed Ptarmigan, found completely by chance when we stumbled upon an adult "clucking". There is a chick in the nest. Seen at Rocky Mountain National Park.

The White-tailed Ptarmigan was extremely hard to find. We were lucky to stumble across this one that was making noise because a nest was nearby - otherwise we never would have seen it.

Photo taken at the Crane Poiint Nature Center Marathon Florida Keys.

The double-crested Cormorants are not completely waterproof. Their feathers absorb water in order to make then heavier so they could dive deeper up to 80 feet down.
