These were shot at Laguna Madre Nature Trail in South Padre or at Laguna Atascosa NWR.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks Harry. On the Willet shots that is about all she wrote. They are heavily cropped. I shot that willet at 500mm, but still needed a heavy crop to get a decent pic. If I go further, too much pixelation occurs. I might be able to crop the Snowy some more. That one was relatively close to where I was shooting. Thanks again.
