I was happy to find this site the other day. This seems to have a professional feel but also down to earth, so I'm very willing to participate.
I enjoy "catching" a bird in flight or any other challenging shot. I love sharing these with friends who also have a great appreciation for the beauty in creation up close. My wife and I live in Florida by the Gulf coast, and have a blog that helps others find great places to "Photo Walk" in our area: http://floridawildlifephoto.blogspot.com.
In our area we have both protected wildlife beaches and inland Preserves to enjoy. I always have a need to learn from others. An old proverb states: ' as iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens the face of another'.
Looking forward in viewing the details of the groups work.
I would welcome you like the others, except I noticed that you have stolen one of my Snail Kite photos and are using it in your blog about Florida. Not only did you steal the photo, but it has been modified so that my copyright is not there. I suggest you remove my photo and any other stolen photos from your blog and do not use photos that are not your own in the future. Failure to comply with my demand will result in legal action being taken against you.
