After the rains the past few days, I got out of the house for a few minutes this morning. It was cool and damp. I drove by San Angelo State Park to see if anything was stirring. Not much action there, then I drove by the little pond in the Bluffs Addition. Here are a few images from my expedition. All were taken with my Canon EOS 7D with 100-400mm lens. I will put exposure information beneath each photo. Click on any of them to see an enlargement.
