Still at Choke Canyon State Park. It has been cool, but not freezing. Have not had to use much propane. I am the only camper in my section of the campground, which is nice.
Have not seen the bobcat again. It has been to cool to sit out and watch for him.
Above, scissor-tailed flycatcher and vermilion flycatcher.

Green jay with an acorn. Looking forward to seeing lots of green jays in the Rio Grande area.

In South Texas’ thorn forest it is easy for javelina and bobcats to hide.

Beautiful young white-tailed deer. Deer graze all around my rv. Enjoy watching them.

Egret with mouse. Have also seen heron’s hunting for them.


Harris’s hawk



Hello,
I’m preparing an educational sign for the Univ. of Calif. Davis Arboretum about how jays bury acorns and accidentally “plant” oaks all over the world. I would love to use your photo of the green jay with an acorn in its mouth.
Would you be willing to allow one-time use? If so, can you send me a high-res image? And how would you like the photo to be credited?
Thanks for considering my request,
Diane Cary
Communications Director, UC Davis Arboretum
