Some human-made structures actually support nature Some human-made structures actually support nature - like channel markers and this @FLStateParks exit sign providing a perch for double-crested cormorants. Also, I can't wait to return to #Caladesi Island. . . . #flstateparks #happierplace #lovefl #urbanwildlife #yourshotphotographer #roamflorida #floridabirds #saltlife #cormorant
Been toying with the idea of a focused photo serie Been toying with the idea of a focused photo series about "urban wildlife" or "industry + nature". Show how nature can to be found anywhere or how industry pushes out nature. If I do, I might start with this: terns flying by coal-power plant in Apollo Beach just up the way from the Piney Point toxic water breach and dump into Tampa Bay. It's truly disheartening to know how little industry and government cares about the environment. Too many people seriously believe that the "financial bottom line" is the only value that matters. What is uplifting is to see the terns soar and then dive down to catch fish. And there is hope that many people DO care and that environmental protection and positive change can exist if we vote, engage, and make our own choices wisely. . . . #urbanwildlife #industrial #tampabay #seabirds #tern #apollobeach

Played hooky this morning to wander around Fort de Played hooky this morning to wander around Fort de Soto with a friend. We figured after wind, rain, and brief drop in temperature this week, the air + water would be especially clear and bright. The colors were incredible. The fresh air extra crisp. Totally worth catching up on work over the weekend. . . . #beachlife #fortdesoto #happierplace #rei1440project #keepflwild #floridaexplored #roamflorida #pinellascounty #saltlife #openspace
Finally thought of #WaterfallWednesday on a Wednes Finally thought of #WaterfallWednesday on a Wednesday! Not that this is much of a waterfall. But it was the biggest water action we saw on the "it's gotta be just around the next bend" hike on the Chattooga River Trail, which did NOT actually take us back down to the famous river from Deliverance. We eventually gave up, turned around and got in the river closer to the parking lot - now that the crowds had left - possibly fearful of banjo-playing locals showing up after sunset. While looking for a path down to the river on the long trail through the woods, it felt a bit frustrating. But in the days and months since, I realized that it had been one of my happiest hours when I could just forest bathe without many "I gotta take a picture of this" moments - and yet still come away with a few choice pictures like this one. #HappierPlace #SouthCarolina - or wait, wasn't this then on the #Georgia side? #lostinthewoods #Chattooga #hikingadventures #womenwhohike #forestbathing
Who's in the mood for a little seaside sunset? Too Who's in the mood for a little seaside sunset? Took this photo at Caladesi Island when I took the photo I posted over at @Happier_Place yesterday. Same sunset, different angle. Which one do you prefer? You love all sunsets equally? Sweet.
