Yesterday evening I got out and headed to the stock ponds. With the drought I thought there might be a lot of wildlife around the ponds and I was right. Many birds are still coming in during the spring migration. Still have not see any bullbats(nighthawks) but looking forward to their arrival.

On the way I did run into one of the most exciting things I have ever photographed. A very large and angry rattlesnake. It was about 5 foot long and about as big around as my wrist. He lunged at me twice and covered a larger distance than I thought. Good thing my 600mm lens as a minimum focusing distance of 13 feet.

I won't post any pictures on the main post but I will put a couple in the comments. So there is your warning.

I've been on the lookout for the songbirds to come to the South Plains. Beginning to see a few and but still waiting for the unnerMississippi Kites and Nighthawks to come back. While we wait there is always the chance to see quail and roadrunners. In fact my neighbor has a roadrunner nest in his front yard in a spanish broom.

I never realized that roadrunners can cover such a large area. I see the parents over a half mile away hunting for food. You can barely see the hatchlings in the nest so no photographs but there are 4. I'm hoping that we get to see them leave the nest.

Bob White and Scaled Quail are pairing off and looking for nests. I've seen numerous pairs in the milo stubble behind my house as I am getting the field ready for cotton.

I love the mornings. You never know what you will see. In these three photos that I saw something different each morning. Although we are in a drought we still see wildlife and sunrises that brighten your day. Get out and look at the sunrise and look around as you might be surprised at what you see.

A took this photo two years ago today. I have wanted to go back and try to get and early morning pic. I hoped that would be this year but I doubt there is a crop of Bluebonnets like this one. Someday............
