Cold front for the work week.

a cold front came in at 7:35am on Monday. we actually seen it..  the temp was 72 and very high humidity, when the cold front came in the wind was blowing from the north, the temp dropped to 55 and the humidity was gone.. 

it was actually a good day to clear some brush..




a self made knot..


Luckily the weather is cool ( 44-55) we made a lot more progress on Tuesday:



we need to widen it a bit.  hope we can get it done on Wed. because as soon as they turn the water on this area will flood and we won't be able to get back in here.

while we took a little rest we seen 6 Javalina's (not close enough to get a picture) and a bobcat!


bushes are still blooming..


we also seen a Gray Hawk (he took off before I could focus the camera).  maybe tomorrow!

Wed: did not see the Gray Hawk but did get a pic of the Harris' Hawk



we think we finished our project of clearing out the low area.. 



we think it looks pretty good, but it is not up to us..  will wait to see what Drew says.
