Hot and Hotter in Texas

The temps for today was 100 degrees, but the hummers and butterfly's are feeding heavy on my wildflowers as they start their journey South. The population grows each day even with the hot weather and no rain.             

                                                 

Blue Jays and the Rain

Today storm clouds have hung around all day, but only a little rain has fallen. I went to the patio since I could not ramble the woods. The Cardinals, and Jays were busy in the rain. The others were hold up in the leaves out of the rain

                                                                                             

Springtime and Turkey

Went north today and found new critters to photograph. This turkey was difficult to stay focused in the brush and weeds. Happy to get this op.

Springtime

Today is a cloudy spring day here at the cave. I would like to go north but I first have to take care of the yard and sweet-gum balls. Life should be enjoyed each day with what one wants and enjoys.

Wild Hogs in the Wetland

 

Today on February, 19, 2018 it was 74 degrees with a light wind from the south. After our coffee we decided to go to Pond Creek and check out the wildlife there. We had possible rain showers and heave cloud cover. 

  When we arrived it appeared there was not going to be any photographs made of wildlife. We searched for any sign of life and finally we found a bunch of wild hogs roaming the woods. We watched them and photographed them rooting the ground. This went on for some time before they realized we were there. We found five bunches before the day was over.

   The Cormorants were working the shallow ponds and the Blue Herons were busy also, Photographing any wildlife we found was the plan. We searched for any owls and found none , but did have two calling back and forth near a creek bottom near Red Lake.

Today was a great day out with the critters, I finally got photos of the Bald Eagles at T A 2 working on the nest and flying with their building materials (limb) .
