Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park

Some friends were visiting the area from out of state last week and spent a few hours at Homosassa.  It reminded me of some photos I took several years ago up there.  And I took a walk on a virtual wild side this afternoon while taking a break while working on a task requiring a lot of painstaking detail.

Hawks




Eagles

I loved the flag in the background.





I'll save my hippo, alligator, and manatee photos for another day -- and the boat ride to the entrance of the wildlife park..  If you have never been to Homosassa, take the time to visit.  It is well worth the trip and small entrance fee.

The Perfect Palm

One of my favorite shots along the Road to Hana on Maui.  I found it in the little village of Kenae.  When I went back a few years later it wasn't there.  The sea had reclaimed it's land.  I was really glad I had gotten this picture when I did on our 25th anniversary trip in 2000.

I printed this out to frame it.
