texas_2011 Photo Gallery by Sandy Selesky at pbase.com

These images were taken at High Island (Houston Audubon sanctuaries there) and the Bolivar Peninsula (Rollover Pass) during the week of April 16-22 with my good friend Pat Comas from Pittsburgh. All images were handheld and taken with my Canon 7D and 100-400 lens. No flash was used. The birds bathing are from a photographer's blind at one of the Audubon sanctuaries where 2 man-made water drips into small "puddles" were just outside the camera holes.
