As you are entering Magnolia Gardens Audubon Swamp Garden you are walking along the Ashley River. The featured landscape is a 4 image panorama taken @ 14mm with a 14-140mm on an Olympus OM-D-E m1. As you are walking here you can see a lot of birds and some alligators on the other side of the path. It is a large open area so some of the Wildlife is far off in the distance, but you can see some birds & alligators close up if you are patient. Sometimes the Alligators are too close-up!

Thanks so much Belinda! Once the COVID-19 is gone it would be Great to go back there! We liked the Audubon Swamp Gardens best, but the Magnolia Plantation gardens and roaming Peacocks and Wild Turkeys were interesting also.
Wonderful shots, brings back memories for me! We visited here back in 2014, very nice place to walk around. Did you know that the white bridge was damaged this past summer by a fallen tree?
What a wonderful tour, Reed! Beautiful landscapes!

Thanks Donna! No, did not know that. It has been a few years since we were there!
Go to https://passingbyphoto.com/2020/12/19/update-3a-long-white-bridge-magnolia-plantation-and-gardens/ and check out Ellen’s photos of the rebuild. Search back further, for other updates. If I remember correctly, the tree fell back in July. 😦 That bridge gave awesome reflection shots!
Boardwalks are so great for accessing swampy areas that we’d never other wise get to see. I love the sky and light in these shots.
Thanks Eliza! After COVID-19 it would be great to go back there!
