Beautiful snakes. I wish I could say we had some of those but instead a record 14 Western Diamondbacks had to be relocated between May 28 and Sept. 8. Other than those, the occasional gopher snake. You are the pie-master!

Thank you! Well, I stood in front of the feeder for hours and took hundreds of pictures and got maybe 2 or 3 good ones...those bats are pretty quick! I also got a nice one of the Lepto species...

There's always an element of luck - but the decision to be present and aware is how the luck had a chance to happen!

Yes, good point--as I've said elsewhere, serendipity is an act of will!
