Lathrop State Park

I had hoped to get some flight pictures of the Mississippi Kites this morning but woke up to a little fog and cloudy skies.  I decided to head west to Lathrop State Park which is located just past Walsenburg.  I found a campsite in the Pinon Campground and begin exploring.  Black-billed Magpies were the first birds to noisily greet me followed by Black-headed Grosbeaks and Western Tanagers.  The park seems very birdy and I hope to have  a good morning of shooting tomorrow.  This is the first campsite I have had so far with electricity and a shower (three quarters gets you six minutes) so I am living in luxury.  After three days without a shower and hardly being able to stand myself, I decided Edie was smart in not coming along this trip!
