While attempting to capture some pictures of the Perseid Meteor Shower, I grabbed my new Tamron 150-600 with the TC-1.4 teleconverter, I took a few shots of the moon.

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



I would do it again.

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.

Every year the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge is host to several thousand Snow and Ross geese. It’s always amazing when they fly out.

Early morning at the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge is very peaceful and pretty. There were about 1000 Snow and Ross geese there.

The first shot of a duck for the day. It was swimming away from the sunrise but turned around.

Appropriately for the season, I saw this girl coming back from the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge last Tuesday.

Happy Thanksgiving!

It seems like there are hundreds of different sparrow type birds around the area. I think this is a Savannah Sparrow.
