First 2: hot air balloon over the NM desert
|
This morning's trek was a bit dicey because we encountered not one, not two, but three different critters: two jackrabbits and one cottontail. Unfortunately, both Willow and Frio were more than ready to pursue. It was a bit of a struggle to hold them back.
Way up in the source of Left Branch Arroyo we happened upon another blooming Torrey Yucca, and I had to maneuver around quite a bit to get photos of it. Fortunately, the Heelers were cooperative and followed along willingly.
There were a few extra Claret Cup Hedgehog Cacti in flower today, and I got some good images of them.

Nice photos of the beautiful Hedgehog Claret Cup flowers. And I'm glad you found another blooming Yucca in the desert.
