Critter Chase

Early morning sky
Despite being really under the weather this morning I took Frio and Willow out for our usual hike.  Dr. K went shopping.  Not long after I chastised the two miscreants for chasing a jackrabbit down LDR-A  arroyo they lit out after a coyote who made fools of them.

He led them into an arroyo and then lost them; they returned with sheepish expressions on their faces.  A moment later I spotted Mr. Trickster sitting up on a hill watching us--no doubt having a good laugh.

Almost like springtime out there today.
