Very nice. I will be going back there in about one and one-half weeks. How early did you get there?

Thanks everyone for your very kind comments. To answer a couple of questions, I visited the reserve Wednesday, Oct 24, 2018 at 10:30AM and spent about 3hrs walking the trails. I find during our winter (if you can call it that) we get a lot of migratory birds and spring is good with a lot of birds nesting. I've rarely been disappointed visiting here as there is always something photograph. Early morning or evening are the best times as the birds are more active plus you get the golden hour. Again, thanks for viewing and comments.
