Thank you, I never thought of the desert as pretty.  This last trip was great and I wanted a perspective similar to large Redwoods..... I believe I've become a fan of Ocotillos too!  They were just starting to bloom!!

This photo was fun too!!

I like the fact that most people don't quite get the beauty of the desert. Keeps all the sand players away ;)

I think I read a few of the chapters and never finished it. I will have to pick up a copy and give it another try..

I remember it took place near Moab and Arches.

Wildlife is much more active this March than normal and the hummingbirds are out in force.

This rofous isn't happy about the annas sitting on the feeder.

Very cool pic of the 2 hummers, Wrightwood!  I just set this pic as my desktop background, replacing a winter photo I've had on there for a while.  I need to get my feeders out......

Nice shots, Wrightwood!
It's awfully hard (for me anyway) to get clarity on these little guy's underbellies.
Where exactly did you find this one? We have a group of them that bed down on our front lot (LPC and Summit).

Beautiful pictures of the quail - she looks very healthy!   :2thumbsup:

I just set the 2nd pic as my desktop pic, it's so pretty.  Seems as if her little feet would be cold......

Yeah; ours come into our backyard every morning, too. In addition to regular feed, we through out our scrap from our pet birds, so our wild birds get vitamin fortified diet!  ;D

Don't you just love when their babies come out in the summer?  :)
