After a few days in Texas, I had my first day off and headed to Aransas National Wildlife Refuge on the Gulf coast. The refuge is currently filled with wintering birds from all over the country. The diversity and quantity of large birds was unlike anything I've ever seen. Enjoy the photos and take your best guess at identifying the animal in the second photo.

The eye in the second photo is a black vulture.
Stunning.
