If you read my most recent post, you will have read that I had one of my brainstorms.
I don't have that much patience to spend hours snapping photos of birds in the right pose, especially when Bailey is balanced in my bike basket. I couldn't tell the birds to hurry up and turn one way or the other, as much as I would have liked to. Some times when I tried to get closer to get a better shot, the darn bird would fly away. I had a better idea!
My friend Dan is a volunteer at the Key West Wildlife Center. On his vacation he helps to take care of the many chickens, roosters, pelicans,egrets and a couple of other birds in need. So I decided to visit him one day to photograph birds that I could get a lot closer to!

| A surprise! A resident iguana. |
This was well worth the visit.
An idea I may repeat with a trip to the Philadelphia Zoo.
