Whooping Crane!!!

Thanks to my good friend Bron for making sure that we got on the Skimmer so we saw them before they left for the summer.

Made it to Texas

Houston from the Interstate. As we were passing through. (Ignore the dirty windshield).

Next up: The Alamo and San Antonio Riverwalk.

Egret nests

Don't they have the most beautiful plumes? No wonder they were hunted to near extinction for their feathers.

A mated pair.

Can you see the blue egg?

Turtles on a log. (What else can you say about turtles on a log?)

But what do you do when they REALLY want your lunch? And if YOU'RE the lunch, does that count as feeding them?
