The bald eagle – a symbol of America’s freedom.  I get goosebumps whenever I see one!  Conowingo Dam has become a favorite place to visit and see bald eagles – lots of them!  I’m just a rookie at photographing these majestic birds, but I’m having fun learning the best spots to set up, times of day, lighting, etc. to try and improve my photos.  On this day, one of the eagles flew in from across the river and landed in a tree right near where I was standing!  Favorite moment of the day!

Photographing the Patas monkeys at Animal Adventure Park in Harpursville, NY was SO much fun!  There were several babies and they were very active and playful.  Here’s one munching on a grape.

One of my very favorite places in the whole world is the water lily garden at Longwood.  If I lived nearby, I would be there every day when the water lilies are in bloom!

This time of year always makes me sad.  Not only is summer coming to an end, but the hummingbirds and butterflies will soon depart on their migration south.  I will miss them.

These two were feeding sunflower seeds to one another … it was so cute!
