Curve-billed Thrasher, Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, November 12, 2011
Curve-billed Thrasher
Got the Canon 7D out this morning for the first time in a while and shot what appears to be a nesting pair of Curve-billed Thrashers. Can that be? This time of year?

Site 6 - Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM
- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)
