Bosque - Day 2

As a nature photographer one should not go to a location with preset expectations.  The temperatures were conducive for bird silhouettes in a "Fire and Ice" display. Did not happen.....yet again.On the exit route from the reserve a flock of Gambel's Quails scurried across.

We more than made up for this disappointment by discovering an amazing place to photograph the Sandhill Cranes at close distance.

Late evening at the flight deck was productive.

Already looking forward to "Bosque and More" 2014.  Working on making some additional modifications to workshop educational/training locations.  Will be posting the workshop dates next week.
