LINCOLN — Dale Cockrell is a common sight along stretches of Downingsville Road, where he walks with his dog Gillie leashed in his hand and a camera and telephoto lens slung over his back. That camera is always ready for him to snap whatever he finds interesting. 

Over several years, “interesting” has led to many thousands of images of Lincoln’s wildlife. By special request, Cockrell has selected some of his favorite shots — all taken within easy walking distance of his home — and organized them into a Lincoln Library slide presentation on Thursday Jan. 11, at 7 p.m. Images range from butterflies to bears, hummers to herons, mice to moose, spiders to snakes, and much, much more.
