Wildlife Photography – Photos by Pody

3,2,1 GO!

I’m proud to say this photo won an honorable mention in the Dewitt county shutterbugs contest.

It seems like I get a lot of butt shots of ducks.

Early morning makes it hard to tell.

I like to get theses guys early in the morning while the water is still.

Most days there are hundreds if not thousands of birds at the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge.

I like to get there early to beat the traffic like this guy. (Traffic is not an really issue at the refuge.)

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

I drive to the Hagerman Wildlife Refuge about five times a year.

This Great Blue was fishing.

This last post of the Alligators is one of my favorites.

I was laying on the dock. My wife thought I was a little too close!! I felt pretty safe.

Speaking to one of the locals, they have named one of these Lucy.

It doesn’t look like the Lucy I am familiar with!

While on our vacation in Arkansas near Texarkana, we had a few unexpected visitors at lake Millwood. These are two different alligators.

It was one of the highlights of the trip.

These barn swallows are here most every day when I go on my morning walk. Today they had a nice background.

It looks like they are “social Distancing” well. I wonder what they are talking about?
