Ocotillo

A back-lit ocotillo on our property. The combination of lots of rain, and now warm sunshine really has things greening up in the desert!

Coatimundi near Tucson, Arizona.

Coatimundi! Another exciting new visitor this morning! Coati have shown up on my game cam at night a few times, but this is the first time I have seen one here. We saw them in Costa Rica, but it is cool they are here in Arizona too. There is a lot going on out in the desert that doesn’t always meet the eye.

Gray fox on a bird feeder near Tucson, Arizona.

My feeders have proven to be squirrel proof, but evidently not fox proof. I raised it – the little platform is about feet in the air.

Gambel’s Quail.

A covy of Gambel’s Quail visits our feeders a couple of times a day. I love seeing them marching out of the wash in a single file line on their way to breakfast. I also love hearing their unique call echo in the hills behind our camp.
