One Bald Eagle, Two Sandhill Cranes, Three Ravens, Bosque National Wildlife Refuge, San Antonio NM, February 2, 2010
This was one of those frustrating mornings driving me to take that Canon 100-400mm Telephoto lens off my wish list and put it on the camera. I really really wanted to reach out to see what the Bald Eagle was eating much to the dismay of the Ravens, and I just couldn't.
The lens will be here tomorrow....

More Toward Realism than Fantasy
I've always been drawn more toward realism than fantasy, because it seems to me that realism is endlessly interesting and finally indeterminable. Realism is a species of fantasy that's much more integrated and hard-core than fantasy itself, but if you are ready to come to grips with the inevitable slipperiness of most available facts, you come to recognize that realism is not a direct approach to the truth so much as it is the most concentrated form of fantasy.
