No, it's right here in Tampa on a small pond by my house.

Outstanding...Your shots are so clean and crisp.... What a great job. I used to work for the St. Pete Times and had the Punta Gorda run and went by the Venice Rookery every night !

Thank you, yes I'm fortunate to have this place so close that these birds come to reproduce every year.

Excellent set, Gary! I am on my way to Hilton Head Island this coming weekend and hope to get some similar shots at the Pinckney Island rookery on Ibis Pond.
