Bosque by dawn's early light
p.1 #1Bosque by dawn's early light
30f in town this morning. What a surprise to find Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge at 17f. Glad I brought layers and my heated gloves. The pond at the Waterfowl Roost was frozen over and the vegetation all covered in frost. I'll tell the rest of the story in pictures.
Comments and suggestions welcome,

2) Snow Geese blastoff from the pond
3) and climb above the mountain
