Bob Pelkey

 Sunday February 7th

Robert M Pelkey

(5/16/1964 to 2/5/2021)



We recently lost our Friend Bob Pelkey.  

Bob had retired a few years ago as a manager with Publix grocery stores.  His retirement brought him back to his home state of Connecticut after living and working for many years in Fort Myers, Florida.

Bob was a noted wildlife photographer and enjoyed venturing out to get that great shot. He was unafraid to to wade out into the surf or a swamp to get that shot. 

I would introduce him as an Award-winning Photographer because he created some great photography.  He also had developed relationships with other noted wildlife photographers including Hemat Kishan of Michigan, Robert Doiron of New Brunswick, Frank Constantin of Quebec and Bob Blanchard of Florida. He was extremely thrilled the day he was invited to join a photography class lead by world famous wildlife photographer Artie Morris. 

Please enjoy his photographs posted on his Blog  - SWFloridabirder
