ABC Wednesday - E
For more ABC Wednesday players' posts , visit Mrs. Nesbitt's Place.
E is for Eagle Nest, New Mexico
Eagle Nest Lake - We spent a day fishing here, and watched the Game Wardens get a bear out of a tree.
We vacationed at Eagle Nest in 2005. It was wonderful. The tempature was plesant, cool. It was in the 90s and 100s in Texas at that time. Eagle Nest is on the Enchanted Circle, a scenic byway (see map below.) It wasn't crowded since it wasn't ski season. There were many other pretty things to see, but they don't start with E. :)
Elk herd outside of Eagle Nest
(click to enlarge, wish I had a better camera!)
This herd was coming out of the woods and grazing in this area right off the road. This was a daily occurance and we went out several days to watch them.

What an interesting post! The elk herd is beautiful. I bet that was a sight to see them get the bear out of a tree!
There's really some beautiful scenery in the States. Trust you enjoyed your day fishing!
Very nice. The photo with the clouds reflected in the water is glorious...
Looks like a beautiful place to go. I love the cloud reflections in the first picture.
Breathtaking scenery...wish I could go there someday...=)
What a pretty picture! It could be a post card!
The area looked familiar, but I couldn't tell by the scale of the map, so I looked it up. We spent a week nearby at Philmont Scout Ranch in the 80s. We traveled to Taos one afternoonm so we went right by the Eagle's Nest area.
Loved your description -- seemed almost like I was there with you! Great entry for E!
looks like an interesting place to visit.
Wonderful shots
Your photos make me want to travel to the southwest. It's such a gorgeous place to visit!
Nice choises. The first picture is beautiful! :)
A very interesting post and a most amazing photo with sky reflected on clear waters.
How do you get a bear out of a tree? Eagles Nest looks a beautiful place.I saw elk in a big swamp from the train in Northern Sweden once, they are seriously big and majestic. Great to stumble upon your blog I will visit again.
Nice photos. Happy "E" ABC Wed.
