Phil Sidran is a Miami optometrist and fellow kayak paddler with a good eye for photography (pun intended.) I especially appreciate his images because many were taken while paddling near where I grew up — in and around Miami and the Florida Everglades — and are of quite notable quality. And based on your enthusiastic comments, you like them, too! So here’s another group of Phil’s fine bird imagery taken January 13. Click here or on the image below to view them all.
