The Dog Days

The Dog Days are Done

September 2, 2010

The dog days of summer are done and it’s cooling off a bit…from 103 to around 97 degrees.  The birds are molting like crazy, so forget photographing them unless you are into naked birds.  On the other hand, some of the south Texas mammals look pretty good in their short fur, so some of us have been braving the heat in hopes of getting javelina, deer, bobcats, rabbits and ground squirrels.  I did miss photographing through most of July and August because my equipment was in the shop or inoperative.MORE
