Experience Wildlife Travel Vlog Episode 2: I have spent my entire life traveling the globe looking for wildlife to photograph and places to discover. I am in search of stories of conservation and wildlife to share with you and inspire those around me to care about the people, places and animals that we share this planet with.

During this week’s episode I will take you to Padre Island, TX in search of Green Sea Turtles. According to the National Park Service, the green sea turtle is the most common sea turtle in Texas and Padre Island National Seashore is particularly important to its survival. The Gulf of Mexico, Laguna Madre, and Mansfield Channel waterways serve as vital developmental habitat for juvenile green sea turtles. Texas beaches are the most important for green sea turtle nesting with about 87% of green sea turtle nests found here.

During the video you will also see photos of a Laughing Gull standing of the top of the head of a Brown Pelican. This behavior is known as Kleptoparasitism, where one animal attempts to steal food from the mouth of another animal.

Tune in next week as I tell you my origin story and how I got started as a Conservation Photographer.
