On Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, Oklahoma, January 17, 2010
Darren, thanks for sharing this. I will definitely need to travel to this location and check it out. It would be great for an extended weekend.
On Ten Years of NPN, April 24, 2010
I have been enjoying the great work here on NPN since 2004. I am thankful to all who have been willing to share their wealth of knowledge and experience. I am just an amateur photographer and I don't post images frequently because I don't have as much time as I would like to photograph. Even so, I have learned a lot from those who have been willing to share their expertise so freely. Thanks to all who have made NPN possible!!
