Some time ago I started taking pictures
here at Hagerman and generally I'd
post for you. There have been a few
times that I was driving through
and the pictures would be downloaded
and catalogued and never posted.
Might be a Senior moment. Well,
I found some of these shots tonight and
thought I'd post them here with the
latest catch.

I hope where ever you are, you are
having a wonderful season of
Thanks, of Giving and the start of a
New Year .


I just can't seem to pass up a Dragon Fly
even if the light was wrong












Not far from th' office



I have the audio, but have not figured
how to add it to the picture. They were
noisy.







I watched this Egret eat
several katydids. Evidently
the fishing was bad that day.

This one did OK.

First Eagle


My first Eagle ever....
This was one of my goals for last year.
The Horney Toad was the other.



Kingfisher ...fishing

Answers to 'Spike'



Heron out on a limb.


Redtail near the refuge

casual observer

Never park in the flight pattern of big birds...messy
Now you know why Bird watchers wear raincoats.



A Cardinal hiding from me.

Wouldn't sign a photo release either...
