Caged Cougar

Captive cougar in a zoo in Hot Springs Arkansas

While at the alligator farm and petting zoo in Hot Springs, I also saw a cougar (also called a mountain lion or puma) in a cage. While this is a beautiful animal to see, it made me sad to see such an intelligent animal in a cage. I am sure an animal such as this… Read More Caged Cougar

I haven’t had a lot of time this week to make a big blog for Wednesday, but I have a little something. Last night, I finally saw a Blue Jay at one of my bird feeders, he was in the late afternoon sunlight, and I managed to hide out with my 70-200mm lens and shoot… Read More Finally Got a Blue Jay

It was a dark and stormy day… as usual lately. There was a bit of a break in the mist and I thought that the clouds might look good in black and white. So, I grabbed my camera, ran out of the house and I went to this nearby park with a pond to see… Read More Gloomy Day with Ducks

Chasing a Little Green Lizard

Close up of green lizard Texas backyard wildlife

I saw a little green lizard on my back patio, so I decided that I would try to catch him and get some close-ups of him with my extension tubes. I was careful not to hurt him and I didn’t want him to shed his tail like they sometimes do to get out of trouble.… Read More Chasing a Little Green Lizard
