Southwest Birds
Purpose: Photograph waterfowl on The Great Texas Coastal Birding Trail
Time frame: February 24-28, 2012
Visions of migratory flocks along the Texas coastline directed our paths during a few days in February. At the advice of local birding friends, my husband and I chose to stop over—and even tent camp— at several waterfowl sanctuaries while traveling to Big Bend National Park. Learning to fly as birders sounded like such a wonderful idea. We were baby chicks—all cute and cuddly—with our camera equipment, anticipating the moments our protective mother hen would scoot her fledgling chicks from one perfect photo opportunity to another.
