"Have a Great Day"
Well here is a strange find,on Oct 10th this young buck appeared out of nowhere after a few shots i noticed this guy was different way different than any other whitetail deer i have ever seen he was Light Gray in color with black markings after much research with professionals and friends that see a lot of deer there all in agreement that it’s something special but what , i have drawn a blank on this guy if any of my friends or followers has any ideas I'm open ,I have researched Piebald,Albino,Melanistic in depth and he just doesn’t fit all the criteria so i actually think its some Genetic Mutation.?????????
Sorry for the Drawn out Story

"Eagle in the Fog" this was the best i could do with the 1/4 mile visibility ground fog in southeast central fla.It made for tough shooting but just seeing one of these beautiful raptors is worth the trip.

Today was a awesome day after all this rain it was nice to get out again and the raptors where very active this was one of many wonderful images i was able to capture today: "Have a great Evening"
It can be tricky to glimpse a Brown Thrasher in a tangled mass of shrubbery, and once you do you may wonder how such a boldly patterned, gangly bird could stay so hidden.and today was my lucky day Lifer for me ……….

Back Lit Doe noticed this gal on a mission heading through the tall grass decided to challenge my skills and work with the available light the tall grass was blowing in the wind making for a tough focus but I'm happy with the results

After a few days of tracking this Coyote a lifer for me,i finally was close enough to get of a few pics this morning not a close as i wanted but amazing to watch looked real healthy and is getting more tolerant of my presence.
UPDATE ON MY COYOTE turns out after much research and talking to some naturalists i discovered that this is a Coywolve
Coywolves are not ‘shy wolves’—they are coyote-wolf hybrids (with some dog mixed in) and now number in the millions
The hybrid, or Canis latrans var., is about 55 pounds heavier than pure coyotes, with longer legs, a larger jaw, smaller ears and a bushier tail. It is part eastern wolf, part wester wolf, western coyote and with some dog
