Time lens cover off and camera raised he is off and running you know how the Coyote feels! Had lens hood on or the sun would have silhouette roadrunner. These pictures were taken at Laguna Atascosa Refuge this morning. Missed a nice 6 point buck also with the Van, never had time to get the camera way he bolted in front of us! 
We spoiled his hunt when he noticed us
Green Jay's are easy to get close to when in a blind or if you put half an Orange on a picnic table!
You always have to go to the Gator Pond and be glad that they are not Crock's cause they have free range and cross the trail to go to the bay
Always check the trail and wonder what has crossed it they do have Ocelots but they are small cats but at one time they did have the big cats.
This is at Padre Island and always have to get a picture of Pelicans They are graceful for a big bird

Now Gayla, I want you to get these next two items for your aquarium
Scorpion Fish, taken at Sea Lab on Padre Island,
most of the fish have been injured or washed up on the beach and brought to the Sea Lab.
Octopus, I was surprised they had one back in the last time they said the one was so smart that he climbed from one tank to the others eating the fish in them!
