Perseus

I decided after all these years to go out and try to capture some meteors during the Perseus Meteor Shower. This year I left my house at 4:00am and drove to the Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge. It’s the darkest place near my house.

I saw a lot more than I captured

This is the hero shot!

I would do it again.

Whooping Cranes

Last Saturday I left the house with camera in hand and drove to the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge in hopes to capture some shots of the nesting Bald Eagles. Much to mu surprise there were three Whooping Cranes that stopped by to rest.

They were a little too far away for my Tamron 100-400 but a cool site nonetheless.
