 | About This Shoot | Date: 13 January 2014 | Location: Aransas Wildlife Refuge (morning) & Port Aransas Nature Preserve | Shoot Type: Wildlife | | Synopsis:
The morning shoot was the first of two on Kevin Sims private photography boat which I chartered, where he took me up through a shipping channel along marsh habitat that makes up much of Aransas refuge. We got on Whooping Cranes right away, and spent the bulk of the morning photographing several different family groups. We also found other wading birds and an Osprey along the way. That afternoon, I found a nice sandbar at the Port Aransas Nature Preserve where I photographed pelicans, both American White and Brown. |
