Due to my recent move to the Lake of the Ozarks, along with the Covid issues, I am currently not teaching group classes. However, I am available for private individual or very small group, in-the-field teaching, where we can safely learn more about our cameras and our photographic techniques..

Fun Friday: A Joyful Meal
Today’s post features a male Prothonotary Warbler that I photographed a few years at the Amarugia Highlands CA Lake (Missouri). As he flitted about, looking for insects, he found a nice morsel, captured and consumed it, then sang with joy: Photographic Equipment Used: Canon 7D body Canon 500mm, f/4 IS lens + Canon 1.4x TC […]

Fun Friday: Looking For a Meal
A couple of days ago, I decided to take Rubber Ducky (my kayak) out for a sunrise paddle at a nearby Missouri Conservation Department waterway. It was a wonderful morning … nice and cool, very little wind, a gorgeous sunrise, and a host of hospitable creatures. One of the colorful inhabitants I found was a […]

Prothonotary Warblers
Yesterday’s post featured the Yellow Warbler during my recent kayak outing. Today’s post features the Prothonotary Warbler (Protonotaria citrea), also captured during that outing. Both of these species of warblers are abundant and active right now. I also heard a couple of Common Yellowthroats while kayaking, but could not find them in the dense undergrowth […]
Back in the Saddle, Again
Last week, I finally got out in the kayak again. It had been 2 years since my last kayak outing (due to my head surgery and extended recovery last year), so I was anxious to get back on the water. We found lots of warblers around the water. Today’s post features a few of the […]
The “P” Warblers Are Back!”
By that, I’m talking about the Prothonotary Warblers (Protonotaria citrea), which are always a sign that spring is here! And I refer to them as the “P” warblers as that is much easier to say … and write. :o) As I kayaked yesterday, I had dozens of these beauties around the banks of the waterway […]
Why Do I Like Photographing from a Kayak?
Today’s post is another post with the Prothonotary Warbler (Protonaria citrea). I was planning on posting a different species of warbler images today, but I had such a good day in the kayak yesterday with a Prothonotary Warbler, that I wanted to share this wonderful experience with you. Yesterday’s kayak trip was exceptional: bunches of Prothonotary and Yellow-rumped Warblers, several Yellow […]

Prothonotary Warblers
During my last few kayak outings, the Prothonotary Warblers (Protonotaria citrea) have been very busy. So far, I have only seen the males. But they have been busy setting up territories and fighting off other males who happen into their space. I really love these colorful little harbingers of spring, with their cheerful songs and colorful […]
