More Merlin!

I couldn't resist going to see the Merlin again.

This is the first Merlin I have seen and I was lucky enough to get relatively close.  I'd like to head out again tomorrow afternoon because the sun will be at a better angle for its favorite perch.

New Year, New Camera!

Now that I have replaced my broken old camera, hopefully I will be updating this blog a little more often. These are all from a recent trip to Big Bend National Park.

My first Common Yellowthroat

My first Blue-gray Gnatcatcher

A Greater Roadrunner

My first Cactus Wren

My first Rock Wren

My first Black-throated Sparrow

My first Crissal Thrasher

My first Pyrrhuloxia

And finally my first Vermilion Flycatcher
