I am a corporate employee during the week in the Tampa bay area. I love spending my weekends outdoors hiking and taking pictures of birds and nature. I have a Nikon D7200 camera. My primary lens is a Nikon 300 F4 for birding and Nikon 70-200 F2.8. Other lenses I use less often are Nikon 80-400, Nikon 24-120 mm, Nikon nifty 50mm, Nikon Macro 85mm and Sigma 10-20mm (for landscapes).
Thanks for stopping by!
I was looking at your blog & pics. Just wanted to let you know there are new baby geese (2) at Crescent Lake. There were 3 but 1 went missing today. Also there is 1 maybe 2 more mama geese sitting on eggs. Just thought you may be interested. Lovely work!!
you sure have a beautiful blog, enjoyed my visit, will be back.. ; )
I nominated you for a blog award, if you’d like to participate. (entirely optional). Congrats!

Dina, I must apologize for not recognizing you as a follower sooner!!! I can see that I’m going to be loving your blog. And, your pictures beat mine all to heck. But then the D7000 trumps a little old D60 anytime!!! Neverthesless, thanks for following along and I’ll be doing the same.
Me again. I notice that you follow Arthur Morris’ website. If you are not already aware of it, take a look at this one. http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/board/41 It’s a nature and wildlife photo forum and Art Morris posts there on occasion. I have never seen such wonderful photography and have been checking then out for a couple of years. I’m not in their league but I do love to look.
Great photos! Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting on my Bald Eagle photography. I will look forward to following you.
Hi! I love your photos. We seem to go to a few of the same places. Have you heard if there are owls at Kapok this year??
Very nice!! Lots of great photos and stories. Cool!!
Hi Dina, thank you for visiting my blog. I decided to check yours out and I love it. As you probably know, I love photographing birds, as you do. I have subscribed to yours and I will be looking forward to your great work.
I have been enjoying reading you posts for quite a while now. Your photos are wonderful. I am looking to get a better lens. Just wondering what you are using for your photos?
Hi Dina Just discovered your blog through WBW. You are a fantastic photographer. I haven’t seen all your work yet but your past few posts are amazing. I do not know how to leave a comment on your posts. Is there a simple way? Looking forward to seeing much more. Margaret
Sorry if my english is not very good I speak spanish and I did not want to stop writing to you. I am a nature lover and a beginner in photography but it isn’t necessry know much to stand out the beautiful pictures you take and your ability to capture the right moment. It’s amazing what you do just for the love of nature. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks for the camera info. I am thinking your landscape shot in the header must be the bride between Tampa and Clearwater. Dianne
Hi Dina,
I got “nominated” for a Liebster Award and thought of you for the people to share it with. No obligation, no pressure. Details are available here : http://sebastiengrobelnyphotography.wordpress.com/2014/01/22/liebster-award/
Have a nice day!
Thanks for sharing your camera info. I’m just beginning to look for a new one and admire your photography.
Congratulations for your camera and lenses!!
Now I understand why the photos are so beautiful!! 🙂 🙂
Thank you for your stunning photos!!!
I enjoy your photos. I’m learning of places to take photos since we are in the same area of Florida.
Great to come across a fellow blogger and hiker. Indeed, D7100 is one of the best crop sensor camera around. 🙂
Had a leucistic EUCD in Mangrove Bay neighborhood last week (june 2019), accompanied by a more usual plumage bird FYI.
Your posted photographs of 27 Sept 2018 included 2 shots of a crab with a barnacle attached. I believe the crab is Speckled Swimming Crab, Arenaeus cribrarius (Lamark, 1818) and the barnacle is Symbiotic Acorn Barnacle, Chelonibia testudinaria (Linnaeus, 1758). Would you send me the locality and date you took those 2 photographs? Thank you.
North beach tip at Fort Desoto Park in Pinellas county. The date was 9/23/18 during a really bad red tide episode.
