Although there have been a few posts here about this amazing place, I thought I would add my observations and photographs to the blog. It’s such an incredible location, and the opportunities for shots of these incredible birds rivals just about anyplace else in the country. Inspired by others who visited there in the past, [...]
That’s what it takes. To get the great shots. To see the amazing moments. I thought at this time I’d talk about it and give some examples of just what you can do when you incorporate these three critical pieces of nature photography. It has been especially evident of late, as I make my regular [...]
This is the 3rd article in the series on Waterfowl that I’ve been posting, and this time the focus is on those amazing birds that surf and feed and live in the ocean near the coast of New Jersey. (Use the link below to see all articles in the Waterfowl series.) View the entire series [...]
This article will cover many of the ducks you can observe in New Jersey. With the exception of the oceanic ducks and the Teal, Grebes, Coots and a few others, which I will highlight in future pieces. New Jersey is home to a staggering number of ducks and other waterfowl. Especially in the Winter. It’s [...]

Raptors and beautiful songbirds and herons and egrets and ibises are exciting and wonderful subjects in their own right, but waterfowl are equally fascinating. [...]

While the conditions are difficult for birders and nature photographers, patience and time spent there will be rewarded with some amazing displays and the ability to see a wide variety of predatory birds in action. The biting [...]
My favorite times of day to photograph birds are the early mornings or late afternoons. Why? Because the light from the sun is like no other. It’s warm. Imbued with the richness of reds, orange and yellow, it makes every subject I photograph seem to glow. The starkness of the shadows at that time are [...]
One of the favorite spots on the New Jersey coast for birding all year round, but especially in Winter, is the Barnegat Inlet and Jetty, located at the Northern end of Long Beach Island, in the town of Barnegat Light. Of course, “Old Barney”, the Barnegat Lighthouse is a major attraction there, and it’s the [...]
“Brig”, as it is affectionately known by most of the birders and photographers who frequent it, is the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge – Brigantine Division, located in Oceanville, NJ. I thought it would be interesting to talk about how just a single day there can be so incredibly productive and exciting for birders [...]
