Waterfowl : I posted the below for a friend. NONE of these pictures were taken in Ireland. 


Ireland is blessed enough to have a well-preserved and thriving natural ecosystem. The Irish folks have gone the extra mile to ensure that their neighbors from the wild as well as their habitat is well taken care of. Aside from given them their space, most Irish never tire to come up with ways to make human intrusion more bearable to the rest of Mother Earth's creatures.

This probably explains why Ireland has the most beautiful gardens rich with various species of plants and flowers , as well as mini eco zones such as rivers, lakes, etc. These spots also provide us photographers worthy subjects to feature. In this gallery for instance, we shift our camera lenses towards the colorful and lively waterfowls of Ireland.

One Unreal Afternoon : October 23rd, 2007

Today was one of the most memorable days I have ever spent outdoors. It started off with just a trip to the lake. I was hoping to get some good pictures and catch a few fish. It started off w/ a kingfisher, then ducks, geese, eagles, harriers, hawks, coyotes, river otters, and more. It was totally surreal. The highlight of my day was watching a peregrine falcon take a coot out of the air not once, but twice. Both times he was robbed of his meal by a larger predator on the food chain. The biggest red talied hawk I have ever seen stole the first one. The second time the poor peregrine was chased off by a golden eagle. Believe it or not, the golden eagle was actually pushed off the coot by a coyote. The coyote was less than 50' from me and totally unconcerned. Once he finally left, I looked off in the distance to see 3 more coyotes. One was eating a dead canada goose, the other was just trotting on the shorline, and the last was rolling in the mud like a labrador. 

It was an insane day...

Wildlife Videos : Please be kind.....still images are my preferred media, but the 7D has a video function, so I figured I'd try to get the most out of my camera.
