Overnight Rain

What's that expression?

Never heard the rain during the night, but Becca woke me up several times because she heard thunder; I heard it too then.  It sounded pretty distant so I didn't think we'd gotten any precipitation.  But the desert was wet this morning, and it was extremely humid when the Beckster and I hit the trail west of Tortugas Mountain.  Nonetheless, we had a nice, long hike during which I took some photos of interesting things.

Desert Marigold

I'm guessing it's an abandoned Cactus Wren nest

Maybe an Orange Sulfur on a Trailing Four O'Clock flower

Cevallia sinuata (aka "Stingleaf" or "Stinging Serpent")

A flycatcher (I'm guessing Say's Phoebe)

Queen of the hill
