WELCOME Welcome to Down East Critter Pix. This site is dedicated to the sharing of nature photos and information. The Down East reference is to the reality that most(but not all) of my photography is done in eastern North or South Carolina. My goal is to share quality wildlife and wild-scape photos and information about locations which may be of interest to other photographers and birders. While most of the content of the site will be focused on photography, I will occasionally offer some thoughts about conservation issues in the area.
You will quickly see that my first love is birds and many pics will reflect that interest. But I will sometimes pause to examine other wildlife and scenes in this beautiful area of the country. You will find pages on the site dedicated to some favorite spots for taking pics, including National Wildlife Refuges such as Mattamuskeet, Pocassin Lakes, Alligator River, Pea Island, Mackay Island, and State and local spots such as Huntington Beach State Park in S.C., and many more. You will find these sites along with slideshows of pictures under the tabs in the Menu Bar above. Be sure to check out the "Eagles In The East" tab to see my favorite bird!! Also check "THE FIELD" to see my close to home daily meditation retreat. I am fortunate to have such a beautiful area of the country as a backdrop to my photo efforts and it is my goal to share this bounty with all who visit. Under the JOURNAL tab above, you will find my most recent photo shoot and many from past postings. Just scroll down the JOURNAL page to see all entries. I hope you enjoy the site. Thanks for stopping by!! Check out some of my favorite links on the left. Also check out some of my favorite photos in the gallery below
