Autumn Tour of Block Creek Natural Area

MORE
December 9th, 2009

A couple of weeks ago, three other photographers and I spent three days shooting fall foliage and other subjects on the Block Creek Natural Area near Comfort, Texas.  For most of us, the temptation was strong to focus on birds.  The first morning, we were working a nice red barn in the middle of a grassy field when we flushed a long-eared owl.  Though tempted to pursue the long-winged bird, we remained dedicated to the landscape photography for a while, at least.  By the end of the week, we had photographed many more subjects than anticipated, including butterflies, finches, Canada geese, hawks, owls, creeks, rivers, trees, sunsets and more.
