WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY – HOLEYLAND WMA, FL
This photography is of two Black necked Stilts taken at HoleyLand Wildlife Management Area on Okeechobee Road (US27) between Broward and Palm Beach Counties. The gear used in this photo of the birds was a Nikon D90 with a Tamron 28-300mm lens. Note the high ISO.
If you look closely at the Black-necked Stilt on the lower left. Notice of the two birds that this bird is missing its right leg, more than likely due to a squirmish with a hungry alligator, of which there are plenty!

I am an avid hiker, explorer and photographer living in Florida for the past 20+ years. I enjoy photographing all wildlife and that of the natural world. Currently, I work a 9-5 as a profiler and graphics coordinator for a major online website, but at every opportunity, can be found somewhere traipsing about in the Everglades or in some wooded part of Florida and beyond, following game trails, and exploring new areas where man has least traveled.
