Winter Critters

Well, Liberty Hill is still in the midst of our winter weather (a balmy 70 degrees most days), we are still seeing winter winter critters.

Most notable are the American Robins that swarm (literally) into town to feast on Juniper berries. Oh, and drink. They drink and drink… Must be the Juniper berries.

Our 2020 bumper crop of Cardinals are still around.

Mia even captured a wayward dragon fly at rest.

Meanwhile, the night brings out various predators:

And, my favorite, the Rio Grande Turkey.

Special thanks to Maria Kendall for the Nikon photos.
