Pictures from Montauk State Park

We were camping over Memorial Day Weekend at Montauk State Park in Dent County, Missouri.  I've got lots of photos of the Current River.  Here are just a few.

Montauk State Park is one of the premier trout fishing spots in the Midwest.

Hawk in neighbors tree!

Larry called me out to the backyard because he had spotted a hawk feeding in the neighbors tree. I managed to get a picture!

Spring Is Here

Spring Is Here!

Our Forsythia is in bloom.

Our Lilac's are budding out.

The Peony has a good start.

Along with the Iris's

We've had a couple of beautiful 80 degree days (in April??) although today it was a bit chillier (relatively) at 70 degrees, which is to say it was more April like weather.

Hummingbird photos

I played Nature Photographer the other day... set up the camera on a tripod got a chair and waited and waited and waited ... SUCCESS

San Xavier Mission

San Xavier Mission ... the mission is being rehabed ... the inside is finished and they are now working on the outside. Very beautiful. I especially love the courtyard.

More wildlife at the Desert Museum

It was a sucessful photography day at the Desert Museum with only two exceptions. The big horn sheep were all taking it easy in the shade. Of course, after we had left their site they apparently decided to get up and pose for the cameras. The other disappointment was that the cougers were nowhere to be seen in their incloser.
