Warming Trend

In the Tortugas Mountain foothills

It was a little cold when we started off, owing to a persistent wind.  But the wind stopped, and the temperature began to rise.  Soon I had my hood down and my gloves off.  It began to feel very much like the Chihuahuan Desert we know and love.  While in the outback Becca stared into the distance across a wide arroyo.  Just for the heck of it I took a photo of the area where she was looking.  When I got home and blew the image up I saw the three Coyotes who had attracted Becca's attention.  They appear to be hunting something, perhaps Jackrabbits.
