Life at my house has been a bit hectic, I even thought about not writing this week but figured I better save that option for later. Today I'm going to start a 5 part series of photographs I took in my backyard at my bird feeder this past winter.

Fall Photographs
I'm going to continue this week's theme of Fall by looking at a few of my favorite Fall photographs. Other Muddy Water and Cypress Trees Posts
Backyard Photography
I mentioned Monday how much I enjoy fall. After going after The Roseate Spoonbill I decided to stay close to home the next weekend for some backyard photography. The wind was blowing that morning so a lot of my photos were blurred but I did come away with a few.
Finally, Cooled Off!
I figure with as much as I've commented on the heat I better comment on how it has finally cooled off! This is my favorite time of year. I just love Fall weather. For the first time in months I did not need to mow my yard this weekend. One of my favorite signs of … Continue reading Finally, Cooled Off!
All Spoonbill Posts In One
To help me document this journey on chasing the Roseate Spoonbill for today's Muddy Water And Cypress Trees Post I thought I would put everything into one post as a reminder to me of a goal accomplished. This began at my job and a work day at Freddie Black Choctaw Island WMA West Unit. Before … Continue reading All Spoonbill Posts In One

I saw some first right past the Lake Chicot Pumping Plant but the birds weren't really closer than my first sighting (actually further) … Continue reading More Spoonbills

These cameras are not on a bait pile as is done a lot times but on trails so I'll give them about a month before going to check on them. I'd … Continue reading Upcoming Series: Game Cameras

One of those influences is just as this theme of Friday posts says, Muddy Water and Cypress Trees. I'm thankful to have been raised … Continue reading Where I Come From
The Brake
In college my friend Blake introduced me to an area in the delta he called the brake. We probably spent too much time over there! I never know what I'll see. The other day I drove through the area and did get a few photographs. I was on my way to the Mississippi Levee to … Continue reading The Brake
More From Grand Lake
For this morning's Muddy Water and Cypress Trees Post I'll post some more pictures I took at Grand Lake while watching the Roseate Spoonbills. I saw quite a few birds on this trip. If you're a birder then I recommend you head down to Grand Lake at Eudora, AR. I'm really thankful I got to … Continue reading More From Grand Lake
