Laszlo and Lexi of Naturalperl®, visited the Audubon Society’s Bolivar Flats Shorebird Sanctuary at Bolivar Peninsula. We were at the right place at the right time. Thousands of American avocets, Sandpipers were there, and later the huge White Pelicans also arrived. The birds accepted our presence and we took great photographs for several hours.

Tripo-brellas are in action. As an optional solution, you can wrap your camera with a shower cap, but we prefer our tripo-brellas. I like the darker green one, but Lexi likes the tan, because she often use it as a diffuser on non rainy days. If you interested for this product, please drop me an e-mail.
