This post is dedicated in loving memory of John “Jack” Hayworth, the son of my very dear friend, Former Congresswoman, Dr. Nan Hayworth, and her husband Scott.

Jack was a true American Patriot, who loved our Country, and had a passion for wildlife photography much like my own. Nan even commented that she saw a kindred spirit between the two of us every time she would see my photos.

The photos in this post were all taken by Jack. The very first thing I noticed when Nan shared them with me was that he loved to shoot the exact same subjects that I love. Kindred spirit indeed!

The Hayworths have set up a memorial fund in Jack’s memory for Audubon’s Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary in Naples, Florida. I hope everyone will consider clicking on the blue button below and making a contribution. This was one of the many places Jack would visit to relax, enjoy his passion, and indeed enjoy life.

Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to Nan, Scott, and the rest of the Hayworth family. May God continue to provide the comfort that only He can give, and continue to keep their precious, loving memories in their hearts.
