Winter Scenery near Heron Lake

The Brazos Cliffs and adjoining peaks are visible in the misty distance as light snow
begins to fall near Rutheron and Los Ojos in far northern New Mexico. These photos were taken on December 30, 2007, as the old year faded under a soft blanket of snow.

Visitors in the bushes (left); I had to drive slowly down our driveway this afternoon
to let a couple of wild turkeys cross without becoming cross at me.
