These pictures were taken over Labor Day weekend 2009 only 65 miles from Panama City Beach. Dog Island is small at 6.8 miles in length, accessible only by boat, ferry or airplane. The Nature Conservancy owns most of the island and there is only one hotel, the Pelican Inn

This is probably the only intact example of this habitat type in the U.S. This is part of a restoration project headed up by Maxwell Pons of The Nature Conservancy. Jaguarundis have been spotted at this particular location.

This guy flushed about five feet from me, never did settle down anywhere close enough to get a good shot. He kept landing just out of range in the same three spots when I tried to approach, hence the fairly heavy crops below. I didn't want to stress him too much so I didn't try for very long. I went back to the area to try a stake-out a couple times after the week of heavy rains that came shortly after these shots were taken, but I didn't locate the bird again.
