Waiting on line |
Heading out of the driveway |
Early-morning hot-air ballooning |
On the trail at last |
Cactus Wren in a Yucca |
Purple mountains' majesty |
Tracks of a large Mule Deer |
Heading east to Tortugas |
Why it's called "Ladderback Woodpecker" |

Long-distance view of Tortugas and the Organs Dr. K did double-duty shopping this morning (Target and Albertsons) so it was Willow and me on...

I appreciate you turning on the furnace for us, Packrat.
I've had the furnace on for several weeks, now, Packrat. If I didn't, the house would be around 55 degrees--and Kali (and honestly, I) would not tolerate that!
Different topic: I don't know if you've been following the exploits of Dorian Anderson, a birder from Boston who has crossed the country doing a Big Year on his bicycle. He's documenting his exploits with daily blog posts on bikingforbirds.blogspot.com. In any case, in an effort to save money on lodging, he's been staying with local hosts whenever he can. I found him a place with other bloggers in Arcata, CA and I tried to get him to stay with my brother-in-law in San Diego, but he had better accommodations closer to the coast than where my brother-in-law lives. Dorian's in eastern Arizona now, headed toward Texas (finishing on the Texas Gulf Coast at the end of the year. He wants to spend a lot of time birding the Lower Rio Grande Valley in the next two weeks and could use a place to stay--not necessarily one place for the whole time in the LRGV. If you and Dr. K would be interested in putting up (and putting up with) this interesting character, check out his blog or email him at bikingforbirds@gmail.com.
Thanks for the tip about Dorian Anderson. I'll check out his website. Not sure we'd be able to accommodate him, though, as we'll be up and back from High Rolls several times and then heading to Arizona ourselves.
