Below freezing temps predicted tonight and tomorrow, but the Sun will be visible! Photography inside a cloud bank isn't much fun, all the colors get lost.
I installed a new ballhead on my tripod, the original was poor quality, just wouldn't hold steady enough for long shots. Stabilized optics only do so much, a solid tripod is needed. I often hang extra glass on my cameras, and that makes things even trickier.
It's time to start planning for nesting season at the St.Augustine Alligator Farm. A great way to keep up with what's happening there is http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/birdrookery/?yguid=299677375
You can take pictures that would cost many thousands of dollars in travel expenses, if you actually set out across the boonies, and you'd be unlikely to get as close to the action.

It's only a temporary winter ... maybe a little less temporary up there than down here in Naples. I remember living in Tuscon Arizona when the only way to find winter was to drive up to it: up to Mount Lemon.
My problem is that I missed half of last year due to health issues, thinking about all I missed is tough, LOL! I don't even want to think about watching television!
