Texas heat means nature, nature, and MORE NATURE!

I walked around the Rose Rudman Trailer out in Tyler, Texas, with camera in hand wasting time while my wife was conducting her workshop. Turns out I found quite a few young birds learning to sing and hunt, and I even caught a glimpse of a Red-headed Woodpecker, a lifer for me!
