Right dead center,
what is that,
a Turkey?

We better have a closer look.

Well now,
have we come to drink, or eat?

This old hen comes in about 4:30 P.M. almost every day,
and some times, comes in at lunch time too.

HOLY SMOKE!!

The week end while I was there it looked like someone(s) were having
one heck of a weenie roast over on the mountain side.

Actually this is a view of a part of the Ash Canyon Fire June 21, 03.

************************************************

Now, if you're surfing or scanning the terrain for those elusive hummers, and or any other birds that may be in the trees,
and you just happen to get a glimpse of some thing bright red, white & black .

**********************************************************************

It just might be;

A Giant Mesquite Bug.

**************************

Not much to look at from the front.
Wonder if those are its eyes out the antennas?

They don't bite, or maybe, I should say, it didn't bite.
I picked one up and let it crawl on me.
It jumped off in a few seconds and back into the tree.

******************************************

OK; lets take a look at some of the birds I saw during my visit 06/21-22/03.
