Who's Watching Whom?
While photographing the Black-bellied Whistling Ducks nesting at Bent Oaks Rookery in Rockport, Texas, this curious individual clearly decided to flip the script. After spotting me from the tree canopy, it flew down and strutted along the fence line for a closer investigation — giving me an unexpected and intimate look right back. Captured 4/11/26.

First Light on Aransas Bay
A tranquil sunrise unfolds over Aransas Bay in Fulton, Texas. In the foreground, a weathered fishing boat rests quietly at dock, its reflection doubling the calm. Along the distant breakwater, a lone fisherman stands silhouetted against the rising sun. Captured from the Fulton Harbor Marina- January 1, 2026.

Whoops
During a visit to Goose Island State Park on New Year’s Day, I came across this pair of Whooping Cranes feeding in the waters of St. Charles Bay. Captured January 1, 2026.
