New Years Day
Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, NM

You may ask why I'm posting a landscape photo of a refuge famous for its wintering cranes and geese? Well, it was a beautiful New Mexico winter day.

You may ask where are the birds? We were asking ourselves the same question.

Continuing a downward trend, this year was the worst. The refuge planted no corn fields this year. No food = no birds. There were very few cranes, geese, or migrating ducks, either. Few hawks, no harriers, few sparrows. Sad.

The day was saved at the state refuge in Bernardo. I got some wonderful photos of cranes and geese there. I'll post some of those photos another day.
