It is
late afternoon at the Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge. Clouds are in the sky and there is still a chill in the air. I added a few photos to my Landscape Gallery taken at the Marsh Boardwalk and along the Riverbottom Trail. link

02/20/2013 Impressive Clouds in North Texas
This morning’s weather system produced some interesting cloud formations overhead. I understand that these are called Asperatus Clouds and are considered unusual. In any case, they are impressive to look at. Here is a link to a few more images of them I took before I went to work this morning. link
01/03/2012 Winter Scenery at the Fort Worth Nature Center
01/01/2013 New Year at the Fort Worth Nature Center
It was a new year and the weather was cold and overcast. Still, it was late in the day and I wanted to get out into the fresh air and maybe take a few photos. I didn’t get to stay long, but it was nice to walk around a bit. Apparently if I had been about 20 minutes earlier I would have seen the Bald Eagle feeding at the marsh. But I missed it and had to settle for some photos of the cold landscape. A few of these are shown here and were added to my FWNC Landscape Gallery. I also included a few images that I made the day after Christmas. The snow was still on the ground after the first Christmas Day snow we have had in over 30 years. link
12/07/2012 Fort Worth Nature Center Great Blue Heron
It is now almost winter and the bright fall colors have faded. Most of the birds have migrated away for the winter. Still, we found a Great Blue Heron posing near the shore in the late afternoon sun. Here are a few more photos of the days shoot. link
11/18/2012 Great Egret at the Fort Worth Nature Center
Last weekend we managed to slip away for a couple of hours at the Fort Worth Nature Center. The fall colors were beginning to show and a great egret or two were posing as they fed. I added a few photos to my Wildlife gallery from the day. link
09/17/2012 Spider at the Fort Worth Nature Center
Yes
terday was a dreary and overcast day, but we decided to visit the Nature Center to get out of the house and walk the dogs. As we walked around, the gray sky did not make for that many attractive photos, but I came upon a spider spinning a web at the Bird Blind. He appeared to be missing a couple of legs, but nonetheless provided an interesting subject. He gracefully climbed and spun in circles as he added more and more strands. As we walked further, once we were under the canopy of trees, the light became more interesting and provided a few pictures of the trails. Here are some photos from the days shoot. Click on the photos to see a few more.
