    Cattle Egret with Chicks

    This photo taken at Gatorland in Orlando, Florida. This image is a composite of two. I had one where I liked the mother's stance and one where I liked the babies. So I combined them with a little photoshop magic.

    I originally thought this was a mute swan juvie, but was informed it was a black swan. I had expected black swan juvies to be, well, black. Interesting to me that they are not. It was in fact beside 2 adult black swans. Please correct me if my id is incorrect. This swan at the same lake as...

    My husband found this one under a piece of metal laying on the ground. By far the largest male skink I have seen in recent years.

    Five-lined Skink

    This is an older male. You can tell his age from his grayish color. They lose their brilliant blue and black with age. And the orange head is indicative of breeding season. This one a large fellow, perhaps 6 inches in length.

    Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida has 3 species of swan - black, mute, and black-necked. This photo taken there. The swans are given yearly checkups and the cygnets are caged for protection. There were a few females with cygnets at this date.

    Mute Swan On Nest

    On Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida there are 3 species of swans. I found this female mute swan sitting on her nest. They are used to human interaction and tolerant of human's getting close. I usually try to keep some distance out of respect however.

    This turtle was perhaps 3-4" long. He perches on the leaf of an iris plant that has fallen into the water to sun.

    I stopped at a local park to take a photograph and before I could get out of the car, this warbler landed on my mirror and proceeded to attack his reflection. Go to http://web.tampabay.rr.com/swilli41 and click on the .wmv file for a funny video (no sound). I have returned to that spot twice...

    Not the BEST photo of an alligator, but one I liked because of the slight hint of the legs and tail under the water's surface. Also seemed better in b&w medium.
