Description: "Up Close with a Great Blue Heron" As I was leaving the Leonabelle boardwalk, I heard wings swishing behind me. I turned just in time to see this beauty land. I missed the incoming action shot, but I’m still delighted to have captured several photographs of this bird’s regal pose. Leonabelle is a wonderful area to birdwatch in Port Aransas, Texas.

Description: Single Killdeer ©Debra Martz In February I came across a pair of Killdeer (a type of Plover) on a backroad in northern Oklahoma. One stayed still and back a little ways while this one stopped near the edge of the dirt road and started its call which sounded like it was repeating its name...kill deer kill deer...then it would pause and listen. I took a few photos from the vehicle and moved along. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In My Gallery/Collection: "Feathered Friends" 2024/20200222-DSC_7064.NEF
Description: Great Blue Heron Hiding In the Mangroves ©Debra Martz Perhaps it thought it was in hiding but they are so large that is rather difficult to go unseen.

Description: Bright Eyed Osprey ©Debra Martz It had no plans of going anywhere, outlasting bird watchers and photographers hoping for that taking flight shot. Captured along the 4800 ft boardwalk at South Padre Island Birding and Nature Center the last day of February. I edited the back ground to mute the light brown and green grasses, and the light gray sky to almost black and white. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In My Gallery/Collection: Feathered Friends 3 20230228-DSC_6874.NEF
Description: Roseate Spoonbill On the Move ©Debra Martz. I had been watching quite a few of the spoonbills for awhile but most were just at rest on some logs in the water. After I moved on, I looked back to see that a few had decided rest time was over and time to get back moving and hunting.

Description: Pie-billed Grebe at Rest by the Reeds ©Debra Martz I was walking the boardwalk early morning at Leonabelle and hoping this one Pie-billed Grebe would move completely beyond the reeds but no such luck. It was happy resting where it was with a watchful eye on its surroundings. Port Aransas Texas March 8th. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved
Description: The scarlet ibis (Eudocimus ruber) is a species of ibis in the bird family Threskiornithidae. It inhabits tropical South America and islands of the Caribbean. In form it resembles most of the other twenty-seven extant species of ibis, but its remarkably brilliant scarlet coloration makes it unmistakable. It is one of the two national birds of Trinidad and Tobago. Thank you for looking at my Photography!!! Cynthia
Description: "Grackle In the Morning Sunlight" I heard this female Great-tailed Grackle arriving before I saw her. When I turned, she had landed very close and was lit beautifully by the morning sun. Captured along the Nature Trail in Port Aransas, Texas, mid-autumn. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved In My Collection: “Feathered Friends” 20251017-DSC_9150 AI Text: A bird perches quietly on a branch, illuminated by the warm sunlight.

Description: "Grackle Perched on a Rail" This female Great-tailed Grackle appeared to be deep in thought as it gazed out across the marsh from the railing on the boardwalk. It was 30 minutes after sunrise, and I was still seeing the effects of the golden morning light.
