Morning Glory

March 19, 2017INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRbirds, black and white, Bobcat, BPWD, infrared, landscape, Little Blue Heron, panorama, sunrise, wildlifeEd Rosack

It was exciting to spot a Bobcat. It was stalking slowly through the grass, but I only manage a single (poor) frame before it disappeared. I wish it had lingered for a few minutes so I could get a better shot.

The last late sunrise…

November 6, 2016INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRbirds, blue hour, BPWD, landscape, sunrise, wrenEd Rosack

Many photographers would agree that daylight savings time and “fall back” make it harder to get up for sunrise. We met at 6am last Friday for a photo expedition over to Merritt Island.

Went for a drive last night

July 31, 2016INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRBPWD, cloud, Gator Creek Road, landscape, panorama, Parrish Park, people, sunsetEd Rosack

I haven’t been to Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge in a while (the last time was back in May!) and I miss the place. So I left around 6pm yesterday and headed over.

Early Friday at MINWR

May 1, 2016INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRbirds, BPWD, Fish, landscape, Little Blue Heron, Mottled Duck, Osprey, sunrise, wildlifeEd Rosack

I don’t have much to say this morning, so the photos will have to do most of the talking.

Photographing Florida Weather

October 17, 2015Casey Key, INSIDE FLORIDA, Lake Jesup, Lake Jesup Sunflowers, Merritt Island NWR, VARIOUSbeach, black and white, BPWD, cloud, infrared, landscape, stormEd Rosack

We don’t have mountains here in Central Florida. And we don’t have very good waterfalls either. But our clouds are as good or better than anywhere else.

Merritt Island and Viera Wetlands

July 5, 2015INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWR, Viera WetlandsBPWD, Green Heron, landscape, Osprey, wildlifeEd Rosack

Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge and Viera Wetlands are two of my favorite places to photograph and I had time to visit both last week. They’re each wonderful and seem similar, yet they can be very different.

A few minutes with a Reddish Egret

March 29, 2015INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRbirds, BPWD, Reddish Egret, video, wildlifeEd Rosack

Reddish Egrets aren’t as common in Florida as some of our other wading birds. I seem to see them fairly reliably over on Blackpoint Wildlife Drive in the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.

I haven’t done a sunrise in a while, so Kevin M. and I got up early this morning for a quick trip over to MINWR.

MINWR – November 10, 2012

November 11, 2012INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRbirds, black and white, BPWD, Dolphin, infrared, landscape, Palm Warbler, Porpoise, sunrise, wildlifeEd Rosack

…this is a wonderful time of year to visit MINWR. There are lots of birds around, including many winter visitors and if you’re lucky you can see other wildlife too.

Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge – 9/15/12

September 16, 2012INSIDE FLORIDA, Merritt Island NWRbirds, BPWD, Carolina Wren, dock, infrared, landscape, panorama, pier, sunriseEd Rosack

So we watched a nice sunrise, found some interesting birds, and enjoyed being out in nature. All in all, a very good morning.
