Cool Change Will Change

Just getting started
It was noticeably cooler than yesterday when Dr. K, Willow and I took our morning hike; cloud cover and a slight breeze kept the temperature down.  We followed our regular route seeing nobody else out in our section of northern Chihuahuan Desert.  Took a long ride after the trek listening to Matt and Myron on their Sunday Morning show.

Good images of the Swainson's Hawk. I wonder if this is the same hawk we used to frequently see?
