    I never realized how many different types of dragonflies there are until I started photographing them this year. I loved the color of this one.

    Celestron Regal M2 ED Series - 2013

    Glad I just came across this thread. My parents live on a ranch in East Texas and want a spotting scope and asked me to find them one. I was between this and the Vortex's for the same price. Sounds like I should do the Celestron. Would get them the 16x48 as that is their price range. They would...

    East Texas Snake ID's (one dead)

    The one on the tree I am assuming is some sort of rat/king snake? I relocated him with my new snake tongs. (had to invest in some, I literally see 5+ snakes a day at their property, mostly around the house) My parents put down the sticky trap to catch all the scorpions that have been coming in...

    ID Needed For East Texas Snake

    No it was banded like a coral snakes stripes, but just had two colors. I was thinking red and black, but I am extremely colorblind and my girlfriend said it was bright orange and black. Really strange snake. And I just have an Audubon Reptiles book for snakes. I searched all over online. My...

    ID Needed For East Texas Snake

    Also, I saw a bright orange and dark black banded snake. Seemed to have more orange than black. He was skinny and in the water. Very quick .Never seen a snake like it. I have looked in my books and there is nothing that looks even near it.

    Bird ID Needed, San Antonio, Texas

    Darn I should have recognized that! Especially since I ID'd a male on the other fence post! One question. While at the San Antonio Botanical Gardens, I saw what i thought to be a Vireo hopping around in a low mesquite just above my head. I got a good lOok at it for a few minutes, and...

    Sorry, I used my phone, through my binoculars, and then was looking through a window, so not the best quality! All the same bird

    Best Place/Time To See Golden-Cheeked Warbler and Black Capped Vireo?

    I am from the Fredericksburg/Comfort area and plan on making a trip down there sometime soon. When I grew up there I was not into birding, however, now I would really like to see Golden-Cheeked Warbler and Black-Capped vireo. Where would the best place to see these birds be? Doesn't have to be...

    Looking for a good pair of Binos under from $200-300

    Yeah they seemed about the same to me. I would say if you want a smaller/lighter pair, then go with the 32's.

    San Diego Bird Festival -- Optics galore!

    I just bought a pair of Vortex Diamonback 8x42's for a second pair/to leave in my car, and I am amazed how good they are for the price. Very crisp, and I love the ergonomics. Really great purchase. I would imagine the Vipers and Razors are awesome. In my life I have owned a pair of a pair of...
