Fine Art Photography David Sussman, owner of DWSussman Photography, is a Florida resident fine art photographer.

His collection includes limited edition one of a kind prints crafted onto canvas and stretched. His works are a reflection that represents the flavor of the Gulf Coast historical, natural and shoreline resources within this unique ecosystem.

1st sight this morning three deer were trapped inside our fence. Momma noticed us and leaped over the fence leaving the yearlings behind. They ran 200 feet one way and back when the smaller of the two jumped up 12 feet well over the fence. Opening our back gate encouraged the other to run through.

“Multicolored Heron” might be a more accurate name for this small wading bird, formerly known as the Louisiana Heron. The Tricolored Heron is one of my favorate mid size wadding birds.

They are back, our belowed colorful Painted Bunting. If you want to attack them; feed white millet, provide low-lying dense shrubs near your feeder for cover, place your feeder near cover but allow a view of the surroundings for safety and maybe use a feeder that has a cage or wire to keep larger birds and mammals out.

When I came across this trio, I tried to photograph isolating or framing the Roseate Spoonbill's by themselves. They each flew off separately as if planned. Wouldn’t you know the pic that has the most interest are the three together.
