Our flock of wild Rio Grande Turkeys have been REAL active. I actually shot, what I think is my best strutting tom photo to date. Check it out. Photo Safaris at our Rocking R6 photography ranch are booking now. The bird spring migration should start anyday now. So far, we have photographed over 65 species of birds here. My great friend Carlos Escamilla has been keeping stats on all bird stuff . THANKS !

Getting ready for Laredo Birding Festival and ICF’s Pro Am photography tournaments

Thigs are really shaping up at our photography ranch, the Rocking R6. We have added a few more blinds in some really active areas of the ranch, and we added 3 NEW ponds, by a few of the blinds. All this in preparation for photographers’ visits during the Laredo Birding Festival, Feb. 3rd and 4th, 2012. Images For Conservation Fund ( ICF ), has picked our ranch for 2 different photography tournaments, and I will be personally coaching the photographers that participate. There is some nice prize money involved, but more important, the opportunity for some fantastic images awaits 6 photographers, which is the most we will be entering. Anyone interested, please contact Images for Conservation Fund for more info. Feel free to email me or call me at 956-286-9605 with any questions.

Here are a few photos, taken within the last few days. ENJOY !!!

This weekend was filled with awesome bird photography action at our ranch. We spent the night at the new ranch house for the first time, and broke in the new Barbeque Pit. The AC, Satellite TV, and everything overall works great. It all makes for a great relaxing stay at the ranch. I got up early and enjoyed some morning photography, and 2 evening photo sessions. Spring colors and sounds are everywhere. ENJOY the birds !

On our return trip from Yellowstone, which was a winter wonderland, I visited Farmington Bay, in Utah, one more time, and got some really nice flying eagle shots. I then visited the Sonoran Desert Museum, in Tuscon, Arizona. What a great place, spread over several acres. They have alot of different species in their natural settings. Here are a couple of images from the last few days. Enjoy !!!
