Stephen > Whooping Crane from Aransas National Wildlife Refuge. This part of the refuge was much closer to Rockport, Texas on a small island in between Aransas NWR and Matagorda Island. The pair had separated, but not by much. One was foraging again while this one was standing guard it appeared.
Stephen > This is the perch I received within about an hour of arriving in Llano, Texas to photograph these wintering eagles. It turns out that this was about as cooperative as they were going to be this day. The rest of my eight hours were not this good, but I did have a wonderful time conversing with other birders and simply observing these majestic birds. December 2007.
Stephen > This is a male American Kestrel I found at the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, near Austwell, Texas, November 2007.
Stephen > The mergansers at a pond in the Las Colinas area of Irving were quite skittish. After taking a few images of this one, it quickly took flight to avoid my prying lens. Irving, Texas, November 2008
Stephen > American Green Tree Frogs from Aransas National Wildlife Refuge near Austwell, Texas, November 2007. These frogs were found in one of the marshy areas near a trailhead.
Stephen > In this photo, one can see the irrigation canal into which the vermilion flycatcher was diving to grab its prey. I was lucky in that it decided to perch a bit on this small, short stick so I was able to include the canal. Fennessey Ranch near Bayside, Texas, December 2008
Stephen > This fine whooping crane gave me a nice pose so I took the shot under partly cloudy skies at Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, near Rockport, Texas. The cloudy skies again brought out the yellow the eyes in this whooping crane. November 20, 2007.
Stephen > As I tried to get pictures of this ruby throated hummingbird sipping on nectar, it paused briefly. I took this in the shadows of some of the large trees located on the Dallas Zoo grounds so as a result the light was rough to say the least and my flash did not fire. Note the pollen on the top part of its beak near the base. Dallas Zoo, Dallas, Texas, August 2008
Stephen > It may be considered a weed, but I think it is pretty. Near Helotes, Texas, June 2007
