The day of the Dragon!

Fotografer

Got up early, wore jeans, long-sleeved shirt, and my field hat. I took a hike down the bank of Brushy Creek here in Round Rock, TX. Folks, there were so many Green Hawkers, Blue Dashers, and Violet Dashers that I was like a little boy in a candy store. About 20 minutes into my adventure, I was up close to the bank in the water stalking a Green Hawker, when I hear the weeds below me rustle...I almost crapped my pants when I saw a water moccasin slither out on top of the water. Tell you what...I was shaking so bad that I could hardly shoot. After about 3 minutes of calming down, I took two more shots and my 2gb CF card was full...lol, I only brought a 2gb CF card, duh?
