Birds seen in the United States. Unless otherwise noted, all birds were photographed in the wild. Some images have been computer enhanced. Most images have been cropped. I usually shoot in high resolution RAW format and convert the images to low resolutions JPG format for web viewing. If you would like to include any of the images in your project, or have special requirements, please email me at wildomke@gmail.com
Red-billed Tropicbird Phaethon aethereus
May, SE Florida, Atlantic Ocean
Canon EOS 400D/XTi | Canon EF100-400 IS USM
This is another rare bird sighting off of the southeast coast of Florida. Not a bad find for my first pelagic trip. The bill on this bird is not yet red, and the tail streamers are just growing in.
