Katy Prairie Flood - 01-24-2009, 12:42 AM


Flood of threads and pics that is.

It was a fun experience to get out and meet everyone. Too bad about the morning wildlife turnout, although it looks like the evening picked up a bit. Wish I could have come back out to play.

Dale -- you didn't shoot that hawk on 529 by any chance, did you? Great warbler catch!!

That is the only place I have seen these Hawks (529 & Pattison Rd.)

Dale,
You did very well on these and you are handling that setup very well. We need to do it again real soon.

Nice shots Dale.
I like the lighting on the first two.It was great to meet you during the week and seeing you again yesterday.I remember that particular hawk as he was having a hard time in the wind.I'm suprised he didn't do a 360 while hanging onto the wire.Keep in touch and keep posting.

Those two pics are of at least one of the hawks on 529. This one is a Juvenile Red Tail.
