Taylor Lake Park, Largo, Florida - Birds

The following pictures were taken using the Sports Photo mode, which worked well with almost all the pictures I took at the park. The bird above is a Black Skimmer. In the next pic it drops its lower mandible into the water to skim for fish. CLICK ON THE PHOTO TO SEE MORE BIRD PICTURES AT MY SMUGMUG SITE.

Taylor Lake Park, Largo, Florida - Black Skimmer

Here's the Black Skimmer in action.

Cleveland, Tennessee

I took this picture while on a walk near Mark's parents' home. I was struck by the image of this large field with a single bale of hay. The flower in the foreground is Queen Anne's Lace, which was a constant presence along the side of the road. To see more pictures from Tennessee click on the picture.
