We've never seen it so dry out here
|
It was a bit warmer out there this morning; we're headed for a high of 91F today.
Dr. K, Willow and I followed our regular route this morning, encountering one very special resident of this section of northern Chihuahuan Desert: a Ladder-backed Woodpecker.
We saw a few jackrabbits during our outing, but never close enough for me to get any photos of the critters. Other than the jacks, the woodpecker and a few other birds we saw no other desert denizens.
When we got back home I spent over an hour cleaning the tracks for our sliding glass patio doors. Tomorrow Handyman John and I are going to replace the wheels on the three doors.

Nice images of the Ladder-backed Woodpecker. My favorite is the one where we can see the top of its head.
