We have a couple of scrub jays who have been frequenting the bird feeder. They are a little too big for the feeder and struggle to stay on it. Maralee
The Gymnast
I moved my bird feeder out as far as I could on the tree and the wily squirrel has still found ways to get to the feeder. He's a persistent little fellow. Maralee
Red Rock Canyon
If it hadn't been as hot as it was, it would have been fun to do some hiking at Red Rock Canyon. But, being that it was 110 degrees, that didn't happen. We did take a drive through the park though. We just missed sunset, although there was still a glow on the distant rocks. …
Butterfly
This little fellow was hopping from chives to chives one morning and I had to try photograph it. I didn't have time to set up my tripod so everything was hand-held. I don't think a tripod would have helped much because he kept moving around so quickly. Maralee
Such Noisy Birds
While I think blue jays are beautiful birds, they can also be very irritating. Especially at 5:00 in the morning on a Saturday when they sit outside my bedroom window and squawk endlessly. Maralee
