This time of year is a change for weather and spottings here in North Texas. The migrants on the lake are getting fewer, but the song bird migrants are beginning. As long as it is not too cold and windy I am out with the camera. Glad to share my photos with you :)
So glad to see you still have such beautiful critters to spot! Winter is starting to set in up here in Tennessee. Lovely!
