Video Safari


You're invited to join us on our video safari.

Here's a compilation of video shots over the course of a couple of weeks. My daughter and I have come to love these little "Video Safari's" we go on. This morning she saw a wild turkey but I didn't have the camera on "Record" when I thought it was. Bummer.

We are trying to get a clip of a poisonous snake but so far no luck. Maybe next time.

Stay tuned.

This Morning's Jeep Adventure

I just got back from an early-morning Jeep ride with my German Shepherd, Jewel. The cool morning air was just perfect -- unusual for Oklahoma this time of year.

We encountered some unexpected wildlife, as you can see from the photos. I'm guessing it was because of the mild temperatures.



This bad boy is a cottonmouth snake (also known as a water moccasin) we caught right in the middle of the road. I wish I'd had my video camera for this one, for some live-action shots. Maybe next time. They have very nasty temperments, are poisonous, and are prone to stay and fight rather than slither away to safety.
