A few more shots from the refuge. Not as much activity as I expected, and getting close was not an option for the most part. Still it was a glorious autumn day and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.

    I absolutely love the Kestrel shot. I can only find them on utility lines! Your last one looks like a harrier. ne_nau.gif

    Nice set Ric - the autumn colours (don't get that much here) and the kestrel are my favourites. thumb.gif

    Hi Ric, The NWR looks like a great spot. Your Fall Colors shot (#1) is really nice cause down here we don't get much of a change even though we do have all 4 seasons but very mild. After 20 years in the mountains of Colorado I've grown to like "mild".

    Nice series Ric! My favorite is the last photo which I believe is a sharp-shinned hawk.

    Always a trade off!
