Down the Highway in search of.....Eagles, Horned Toads & Dragon Flys

It was neat listening to the bridge creaking in the wind. Remember when traffic was so lite at night, you and you friends could have a party out there?









Well, we headed West this weekend. We realized the nest that we had located was in fact the humble abode of a Red Tail Hawk. He was not too hip on us being there. After a few frowns from the hawk, we left. That is when we run across an old complex of bridges across the Brazos river. We talked about moving further West. Mother Nature had other plans for us. Friday evening, The weather took a turn. The radar Friday Night and Saturday morning showed a large storm system moving to North central Texas. We headed back to the house, not a bad move. This is one of the images from the storm.
So, Saturday was ducking storms, eating Mexican food and recovering. ( I'm still exercising the wounded wing..12 weeks is along time not to use the dominant arm for anything heavier than a cup of coffee. Pokey! In case you are wondering, I do all the camera lifting with my left arm. The left arm is getting pretty trim and tough)

Sunday Morning We packed up to chase behind the storm and take a few pictures... We didn't get up early enough.

Hairball? Naw, just a minnow went down wrong.
