Sunrise on Skyline Drive(Scenery) |
|
Description: I spent much of my stay at Davis Mountains State Park working on images and stories from earlier episodes from my expedition. But on my final morning in the park, I drove up-slope to Skyline Drive and looked again for Montezuma Quail. Again, I ‘heard’ them, but did not see any. However, I enjoyed a beautiful sunrise and a couple of ‘early birds’. |
