I made up Old Baldy, and several more miles of hiking. This red tailed hawk was scoping out the Frio river below. Not as sharp as I would like. Took it with the light weight kit lens as I wasn’t up to lugging the 400mm up 500’. #bird #birds #garnerstatepark #photography #wildlifephotography

Arrived at Garner State Park yesterday. Today, I attempt to summit Old Baldy. Wish me luck. #tpwd #garnerstatepark #texasstateparks #oldbaldy #hiking #hillcountry #trails #photography
