We went camping at Blanco State Park for the weekend. It was very nice.

This is Mike and the camping rig


A Spotted Towee


A Cluster of Cedar Waxwings


About forty Wild Turkey crossing a farmer's field near the park


Sunset from our campsite


Our Campfire


Texas Ranch House near the park


Orange Crowned Warbler -  One rarely gets to see the orange crown, but it is there 


Yellow Rumped Warbler - Same story: this angle does not show the rump 


Eastern Bluebird 


House Finch - classic pose of one of my favorite birds 


And our selfie with the cattle just across the fence from our campsite 


We had a great time. It was our first outing in months since I had been sick for much of the Christmas break. But we are hopefully getting back on schedule for more camping. 

Hope you all had a great Valetine's Day - with someone you cared about.

One of the reasons that we moved to Las Cruces was the wide range of camping opportunities: We are about 600 miles from Austin, TX; 600 mile...
