Great close-up side view of this handsome male. Great focus, colors, detail, eye contact, and setting. TFS Grobertson!

One half mile going east on Galleria from Boulder Hwy., just past on the other side of building. Not more than a 1/2 mile. Hope this helps. Not at the Wet lands, that's another area.
