I was thrilled to see this cactus in bloom. But then a rabbit stopped by and ate the bud on top. It didn’t get a chance to bloom.
Red was mixing it up with the quail families.
One of the many families of quail who stopped by over the weekend. We have families with tiny babies up to teenagers now. The smallest family has two babies, another has three, then we have those with six, seven up to 10 babies.
A lone baby quail. One little guy flew up to the windowsill and hung out by me.
I took this with my iphone sitting at my little table. Eventually he flew down to catch up with his siblings and mom and dad.
I’m not sure, but I think this is a Desert Spiny Lizard after looking at photos of Arizona lizards.
A House Finch observes the scene in the backyard. It was a busy weekend for birds. I did get a photo using my iphone of a Harris’s Hawk eating it’s kill on top of a saguaro. But I thought better of sharing it. It’s kind of gross looking.
Red says “What are you guys looking at?”
I have a week of doctors appointments and driving my husband to PT. I even have one appointment for myself.
What’s on your agenda for this week?

Oh, the big life moment has come…daughter is leaving the nest for real 🙂
I’m very excited for her so of course when we were out yesterday I bought her clothes…
Well that will be changing to household items soon enough. I’m excited for her as well 🙂

I hope your driving anxiety is getting a little better EA. You’re definitely getting lots of practice if nothing else. We get rain and storms all week so not much outside. I feel like I need to pull out the craft box again and start a new project.
Wonderful. I love it when birds drop by the window to see what’s going on.
I’m constantly battling woodchucks who eat my flowers, but cactus bloom so rarely. 😰
Bad bunny.
Bad.
