Robert Visconti's wildlife photography portfolio depicts the wildlife of the Lake County, Illinois area through the changing seasons. His images capture insects, birds, mammals, and amphibians with a sensitive eye for color, composition, and well-honed photographic technique.

"Within the exception of just a few, the photos shown have all been taken in or near the Lake County, IL area throughout last year. I really enjoy getting out into the field in anticipation of what I might find that could either yield a better photo of an animal I may already have, or one yet to have been seen by me in the wild." ~ Robert Visconti
