Readers’ wildlife photos

October 23, 2025 • 8:15 am

This is the last batch of photos I have.  If you don’t want this feature to go extinct, and have some good wildlife photo, please send ’em in. Thanks!

Here we have a batch of beach photos from reader Taryn Overton. There is one introductory caption and two captions about birds, both indented below, and you can enlarge the photos by clicking on them:

This set of photos is from the same beach in Naples, Florida spanning 2022-2025.  All were around the time of sunset – nature’s color palette never disappoints!

  1. Your photographs are spectacular! If it weren’t for the two picture with dinosaurs, one might think that those were photographs of sunset on Jupiter. Truly otherworldly.

    1. I use an iPhone14 pro. It’s taken a lot of playing with angles and focus (as much as one can with a phone). For the second shot I had 2x zoom and focused specifically on the waves. To be honest, it’s challenging to take a bad photo of the ocean around sunset!

  2. To call these pictures gorgeous really doesn’t do them justice. Thank you!

    I wish I lived on the ocean.
