Clammy Warmth

The long view of Tortugas and the Organs
The humidity was high when Dr. K, Willow, Frio and I set off on our morning trek today.  The sun wasn't beating down on us, though, so it didn't feel too bad; in fact, due to a cool breeze Dr. K felt chilly for a bit.

Did our usual route and saw no humans nor canines along the way.  We did spot several Black-tailed Jackrabbits and a variety of birds.  Only snapped a shot of a distant hummer, however.

The four amigos all seemed to enjoy our outing today.
