Old Fishermen Turned Into Birdwatcher

There is some beautiful birdwatching and wildlife viewing on lakes Santee Cooper, Wateree/Catawba river chain, and Murray all located in the mid-section of South Carolina. I am primarily a fisherman, but see tons of birds such as Ospreys, diving birds like Anhingas, Herons, and other various species next the bank along the lake. I find myself watching more birds lately, than casting for a fish! Lakes provide a great backdrop for taking pictures, especially with the upcoming fall foliage. I can help people with navigating on lake to key areas, especially at Santee Cooper in the swamps.
If you’re interested in getting together or need more information, you can contact me
