| 1st 2: Desert Cardinal eating ocotillo flowers |
The weather for the trek was kind of perfect: low 60s with sun and very little wind. We were out there for some time, only spotting black side-by-side man and his white dog when we were ascending the right branch arroyo. He had driven west along the Tellbrook Arroyo and parked in a place that let him and his dog explore to the north.
The three of us enjoyed the outing today, especially Willow who loves getting out into the desert.
