    Other subjects around Long Island - 56k no!

    Hey gang: Been trying to hone my overall photography skills. I've been taking a break from aircraft to shoot some nature & wildlife. Here are some of my pictures from travelling around Long Island this summer and wanted to know what you think. Thanks!

    John where did you get that turtle? I haven't seen a turtle on Long Island in years. I see you were down near Sayville. Nice shots!

    Great stuff John! I love the owl shots - it's been years since I've been to the TR bird sanctuary, and it's right up the road from me too. I need to make time to get back there.

    Wonderful work.... I love the reflections on the turtle shot

    The turtle shot was taken at Quogue Wildlife Sanctuary, which is just east of Westhampton Airport. They have a few nature trails there which cross over some ponds, and while sitting on the walkway over the pond, he just swam up.
