What's for breakfast?

I'm not much of a morning person and it looks like this Wood Stork isn't either, lol.

I do love early morning lighting, even though I don't like early morning so much.

The reflections are pretty nice too. But while these birds are looking for breakfast they better beware. . .

I would guess he has a pretty big appetite.

Am I evil that I actually wanted to see a gator snag some breakfast?

Oh, btw I have added some new photos to my gallery for purchase.  The link to get there is at the bottom of the page, way down there.  :0)

  1. It's actually kind of exciting to see a gator snatch its food. Imagine the great shots you would be capturing! It's not so evil, they're just caught up in the Food Web! So it's okay!

    I love the reflection photo.

    Have you tried sending your photos to National Geographic? They choose a number of it for every issue.

  11. Great photos. My feeling is that alligators are horrible creatures to preserve! So sneaky and fast. And ugly.
    Let them feed on the fish, not the birds!

  18. You DO have to get up with the birds to get good shots of the birds, that is so true. But, it is worth it as these are gorgeous!
    As to whether or not you are evil? I think not. Curious, perhaps...

  19. Your comments on that first one really made me chuckle. Great photos again as usual. Sometimes it's difficult to get up in the mornings, but the glorious lighting in these sure made it worth it!
