Glad to hear you used a D500, I've just received mine, it it still in the box.
Will take it for a spin this weekend.


I've only had mine for about 3 weeks and this was my first serious outing with it. Take the time to learn your new camera. I have been amazed at the capabilities! You will love it!

Great series and variety Carol. A place to visit on our next trip.


Thank you, Sylvia! I'm suprised you haven't been there already. It is well worthwhile. We normally spend 3 or 4 hours going through. There are also some hiking trails that you can access from the drive.

Thank you, CK. I saw a couple of them last year but never close and not under good conditions! I'm glad you like these.

There are so many kinds of birds, and each type has its own charm. Great pictures. I love how different birds have such different colors, and beautiful colors.

Tuesday we spent the morning at Black Point Wildlife Drive on Merritt Island. It was probably the best experience I have had there. The weather was perfect and the birds were plentiful. There was even an impressive assortment of butterflies! These are just some of the birds we saw. We spent a lot of time just watching the behaviors as well as shooting. The fishing techniques of these large predatory birds are amazing. Foot shuffling to stir the bottom, wing flapping to shade the water for visibility and that laser quick striking action - a very impressive and lethal combo.

I'm glad you enjoyed these, Gene. No only do they look different, their behaviors are quite different, too. I never tire of watching them.

Thank you so much, Merry. Afterward, my sister said I seemed the happiest I had for quite some time! I was quite close to that beautiful heron. I was hand holding with my 24-120 lens. I would snap a couple of shots then move a couple of steps closer to him. I kept doing that until I decided I didn't want to disturb him. He was awake, just not in the mood to fly off.
