What’s Up?
I just got home from Long Island and am getting ready for the 2023 Galapagos Photo-Cruise of a Lifetime. The good news is that the required clothing for the latter is pretty much identical to that of the former. And the gear is quite similar too; I will be trading out the 600mm […]
What’s Up?
My flight from Islip to Orlando was blessedly uneventful. The luggage was off the plane amazingly quickly and right hand man Jim Litzenberg picked me up a minute after I had grabbed my single checked bag off the carousel. As mentioned previously, the East Pond at JBWR was flooded and un-photographable. Nickerson, on […]

This Just In!
Despite deplorable conditions — wind against a bright sun — at Nickerson Beach Park this morning, Friday 11 AU 2023, I did quite well. There are a zillion black Skimmer chicks and about half a zillion Common Tern chicks. Nearly all of the other photographers there had zero clue as to handle […]
My Call
In the Lunatic Action (Part I) blog post here, my two favorite images were #1 and #4. I went with Image #1 because of its sharpness and simplicity, and I did like the o-o-f loon in the background. And I went with #4 because I had never before created even a lousy image […]
Celebrating Forty Years of Bird Photography
In mid-August 1977 I ventured out onto the mudflats at the South end of the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens, New York. Using possibly the world’s worst binoculars, I spotted a large, tall, cinnamon-colored shorebird with a long, slightly upturned bill. The bird’s beak was […]

Photography at Grimsey Island, Iceland continues to be fantastic. On Friday the highlight was a long flight session with fulmars and kittiwakes On a very windy Saturday afternoon, we had dozens of puffins lying straight at us. On Sunday morning, we worked the Black Guillemots perched with Butterfish and in flight; I created […]
Thanks!
Thanks to the very many folks who commented on the two images in the last blog post. Most everyone chose the dramatic Black-legged Kittiwake image over the splendid, symmetrical puffin with the green background. If I could only have one of those two, I would opt for the kittiwake image but only by a […]
