Breakfast
One of the fascinating things about being a wildlife photographer is that you get to watch the critters do what they do best. And like all of us that go to Mickey Dee's -------- that's eat!
First, when nature is putting on the feed bag, the object of our quest is most intent on feeding and not on the photographer so much--------we can get closer.
Second, the best wildlife blind or hide is a car. The things that creep, crawl, fly and run don't seem to be bothered so much with the automobile. They have seen so many of them zipping about that they don't feel threatened. Sort of like the pedestrians in New York City as they go about with middle fingers extended.
This series is one of the few that I took at Ding Darling reserve down on Florida's Sanibel Island. A good spot to see the long legged wading birds amongst other critters. For the uninitiated this is a great blue heron fishing for something that I have yet to identify. Probably a small fish of some kind. Remember you can double click the image for full screen.

The Extraction
The digestion----------how good am I?
For all those gorging on big macs, aren't you happy we don't have to go through this just to consume our daily allotment of grease?
Time for another cup of Pikes Place, you all have a great weekend!
