Last week I attended a photo workshop lead by Karen Milstein, of Wings & Things Photography, at the Wakodahatchee Wetlands in Delray Beach, Fla. Getting up and being there at 7am was not a lot of fun, but it was soooo worth it. Wakodahatchee is amazing no matter when you go but it was magical in the early morning. I picked up quite a few new tips from Karen. I'd highly recommend going to next year's workshops.
I'm very sad to report that the Great Egret hatchlings are now missing from their nest. 🙁 Hopefully there will be more hatching soon.

I watched an Osprey hunt for fish at the beach Sunday. He or she didn't catch anything but it was amazing to see.

Happy Valentine's Day. It is a bright, sunny, beautiful day here in Miami. Hope you are enjoying your day.
