Today we bring back the photography of Wendy Peck.

Synchronized Birds

Whitney Beach is on the north end of Longboat Key, a barrier island on the west coast of Florida. It is a designated bird sanctuary. One of the joys of walking at the water’s edge is seeing the variety of species—sandpipers, herons, terns. The image above captures a pair of white ibises foraging in unison.

The photograph below was also taken at Whitney Beach. While most eyes focused on the sunset,  I turned around in time to catch the mass of glowing clouds forming opposite the sinking sun.

    I grew up on an island and these beautiful photos remind me of how much I miss the sights and sounds.
