Read All About It in the News Read Article at History Fort Lauderdale More on Pen Women And then this happened... Took a break photographing the Great Horned Owls hoping the lighting would improve or they would change position and be in better light. Went to Green Cay Wetlands Preserve with another photog friend. We witnessed this predation from Great Blue Heron from searching for prey to getting all tied up, strikes several times by the snake, to releasing snake to acquiring it again and finally flying off with it. Must say it was difficult for me to see the snake's face so close up while post processing. Number of likes (love and wow) is more than 650 so far with more than 150 comments. Snake is a brown-banded water snake.
It's always fun for me to reflect back on which Facebook posts received the greatest number of "likes and loves". Mostly I deeply appreciate those who take a little extra time to share a comment on how the images touch them, inspire them, bring them peace, make them feel that they are right there with me as I capture the moment. Thanks so much for your continued love and support. https://www.facebook.com/phoenix.spiritdiva/
