Sunrise at Merced NWR

Waiting on Friends

I really didn’t plan on making a trip to the refuge this morning. Last night I was cruising Facebook and I noticed a photographer-friend was in the area. After a few personal messages, I found out she was going to be there for sunrise.

I got there around 6:45 and didn’t see anybody as I drove in. I decided to find a good place to photograph the sunrise and drive the loop to find her and her husband. Unfortunately I never saw them. Come to find out that they decided to sleep in and visit with family.

Here are by favorite two photos from this morning.
