Back to the Low Country

Noisy Scrub Jay at the top of a tall Juniper

We're back in the lower Chihuahuan Desert now, but we did a nice hike on the Grand View Trail before driving down from the mountains.  We ran into four people and two dogs on our trek:  a man and woman with a white poodle, and two women with a dog called Blue--an Irish Wolfhound mix.  Blue and Becca got along just swell.
