I spotted this Sandhill Crane over a month ago sitting on a nest in a small wetland area near our house. It's my first time seeing Cranes on a nest.

Spring sports are in full swing, and it's always fun photographing the grandkids. They are a little easier to follow than birds flying through the air.

We had a fun winter in Rockport, Texas, and we already miss our friends. That's the hard part about spending four months in the same park.

Aransas National Wildlife Refuge is best known as the wintering home of the last wild flock of endangered whooping cranes. The Refuge has stunning scenery and a diversity of wildlife.

It's spring break in Texas, and we went to Rockport Beach. The almost empty beaches last week are full of families enjoying the water.

It's been warm the last several days, but a cold front came through last night. When I got up today, it was 36 degrees, so we stayed inside most of the day.

The Leonabelle Turnbull Birding Center has an observation area for birds, alligators & fish. It features a boardwalk & tower with panoramic views of the wetland area.

The weather forecast was partly sunny with mild temperatures. I decided to do an early sunrise shoot with a friend Dave at our RV park.
