Some have called Bosque magical and others enchanted. They are both correct.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Very nice captures! Were you there the week before Thanksgiving? We had two mornings where the fog was covering the refuge.

Nice work!

Thank you John,

It was very special being there yet with all the activity my eye was on one of my viewfinders most of the time. Well there is the other eye which was open while I was shooting and for that view you are correct.
