I'm going to a meeting in Hollywood, Fl in late March 2011 and will have my afternoons free. I'd love to spend some time doing bird photography in the Great Cypress/Everglades. Can anyone recommend a photographer-friendly tour guide/charter boat who is reasonably priced and not out to fleece the tourist?

James, why not put your recomendations here where we can all see them? There are others that may be very interested in this information. Isn't that what this site is about...sharing information and learning from others???

AJ, you are correct.

In this case I wanted Ian to email so I could get more specifics related to his trip. The details allow me to personalize my suggestions.

I will offer a blanket recommendation. This someone who knows the area, knows the photographic opportunities as well as related regional logistics.

I highly recommend Siddhardha "Sid" Garige. Here is a link to his info: http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/showthread.php?76883-Charity-Avian-Workshops-South-Florida

James,

Thanks for the endorsement. It is special getting an endorsement from someone who taught me how to hold a camera. Thanks very very much.

Ian,

Contact me if you are interested. We can come up with a plan based on your interest and availability.

Thanks Sid (and James). As I mentioned to James in PM, my trip got cancelled, but I appreciate the offer.
