    Love the Nawlins stuff...I know what it means to miss New Orleans.

    Here's a snappie shot of where I go birding near home...this is part of the wooden elevated walkway to get you over the wetlands and ponds:

    wish I had that at forsythe. I get to walk thru mud and high grass and weeds and get attacked by ticks, green heads, gnats and other assorted bugs

    It's a mighty nice, and kindly, addition by the county and state parks departments...the boardwalks pretty much stretch over any water/mud areas, while the rest of the areas you walk on are raised levees and fire trails...bugs are the only thing we can't avoid...bug bites are part-and-parcel of birding in wetlands! ; Ticks? ; Check. ; Gnats? ; Check. ; Mosquitos? ; Check. ; Deer flies? ; Check. ; Horseflies? ; Check. ; Wasps? ; Check. ; Hornets? ; Check. ; Muddobbers? ; Check. ; Throw in a smattering of spiders of all types, and the non-biting but annoying bugs like beetles, palmetto bugs, ants, skimmers, etc...if you're allergic to bugs, or worried about coming home covered in red spots and itchy patches...best stay away!

    Very cool! ; I always love those perspective shots where something in the foreground appears to be almost reaching out to grab you. ; Corners and points are especially cool that way!
