Hagerman WR - 01-05-2012, 07:48 PM

Critique: NC:

Went up to Hagerman WR on New Years Eve, first time there, nice place. The hawks are thick as thives, too bad the lake was so low, most of the water fowl was out of reach.

Here are a few shots, tell me what you think.

Nice, did you cross the river? Lots of places on the other side to find wildlife hiding.

I photographed that same hawk on that same tree on the same day (#6 and 7). It's a Harlan's Red Tail Hawk.

Nice series Don. I like the hawk shots and the mass ascension of the geese.

Case was never solved. Has no relationship to this Wildlife Refuge however. It was established fifty years before that case occurred.
