What’s Up?
Not much. Today is Sunday 5 December 2021 and it is another gorgeous morning here in Central Florida. I have not been down to the lake since I got back from Long Island. I hope to get my swim in before […]

Would you have left the seashell?
Today is Saturday 4 December 2021. It is another cool (50°), clear morning in Central Florida. The pool is down to 80°again. It was 83° when I swam on Friday afternoon. I spent much if yesterday catching up on last weekends football games on TIVO, but did […]

What’s Up?
Today is Thursday 2 December 2021. I am sitting at the gate for my flight from Islip to Orlando. Jim will be picking my up at MCO. All in all it was a great trip. I came for Snowy Owls and had many great chances. On Wednesday, in the field with long-time friend […]
What’s Up?
It was a cold and clear 24 degrees on Tuesday morning. I found the owl right off the bat and am pretty sure that I made my best-ever Snowy Owl in the dunes image. The dark and drizzly afternoon was a complete bust as far as photography was concerned.
Be sure to […]
What’s Up?
Today is Tuesday 30 November 2021. This blog post is a story in three pictures. All are invited to figure out what happened and to leave a comment. I am exploring eastern Long Island in search of Snowy Owls and more. Wherever you are, and whatever you are doing, I hope that you […]
What’s Up?
I walked Nickerson Beach and peeked in at West End, Jones Beach. There were no Snowy Owl anywhere. Then I headed to Massapequa Park in Nassau County on Long Island to look for the Screech Owl. That worked out a bit better.
Today in Monday 29 November 2021. It is cold and cloudy. […]
What’s Up?
On Saturday, I drove from eastern Connecticut to Shawangunk Grasslands NWR near Walkill, in New York. I had hoped to photograph Short-eared Owls. Instead, I made some tall grass blurs and some woods at sunset images. Today is Sunday 28 November 2021. I woke early and headed to Nickerson Beach in hopes of […]
What’s Up?
I headed back to Long Beach on Friday morning for seconds on the owl. It turned out to be a rather miraculous outing. See below for more on that. You can learn a valuable lesson by considering the High Level Perspective Question just below the I-phone image … Friday afternoon was a bust […]

Today is Friday 26 November. I am going back for seconds today despite the wet forecast. Wherever you are, and whatever you are doing, I hope that you too have a great day. This blog post […]
What’s Up?
I decided at the last minute to fly up to Islip for Thanksgiving (early on Thanksgiving Day). I will stay a week in hopes of finding some early owls either on Long Island or in and around New York City.
Thanks to Derek Courtney for the insightful comment that he left on […]

What’s Up?
I was just about to head home at 8:45am on Wednesday when the first Black Vulture landed near the road-kill cafe. That bird was followed by […]
What’s Up?
Today is Wednesday 17 November 2021. Again, I am working on this blog post while parked on sun angle to this morning’s road kill cafe. It is 8:10am, and again, there has been no action. But at least I am getting some work done. Wherever you are, and whatever you are doing, I […]
What’s Up?
I went down to the lake late yesterday afternoon without much success, though I did see a calling Barred Owl in a gorgeous tree with lots of hanging moss. The bird was sitting on an open perch. I would have set up the 600 with the 2X but for a single vine that […]
