Wren On The Rocks

Timothy Price40 Comments

You know I was a nitty-gritty baby
When my mama would toss me in the cradle
In those old Lava fields back home
It was down around Albuquerque
I was nursing on Wild Turkey
In those old lava fields back home

Rock Wren

Western Kingbird

Curve-billed Thrasher

Señor Thrasher seems to have an underbite.

Turn up the volume so you can listen to Freyja’s splashes

We took a long walk in the bosque this morning, and Freyja got to splash around in the Rio Grande, as you can see in the above video.

Glenda: “Whatcha makin’, Paparazzo?”

What might this pile of wood turn into?

Hmmm! It looks like a waterwheel. But what would we or the cats need a waterwheel for?

Oh! It looks like Marble is hiding something.

Marble: “It’s a Kittywheel! You stupid Paparazzo. You didn’t even know what you put together!

The Kittywheel on the deck with the cat tree.

Sasha thinks it’s quite comfy, but she hasn’t figured out that she’s supposed to walk on the Kittywheel.

Thunderheads were building up in the distance.

While Nora Owl and Willa were having a beak-to-beak in a corral, Walter flew in.

“Banzai!”

Nora Owl: “We don’t want to see your willy Walter! Cut it out.” Walter: “But Mama!”

Willa: “Mama! He’s still doing it.” Nora Owl: “WALTER! How many times do I have to tell you?”

Walter sneaked up on Nora Owl and Willa.

“SURPRIZE! Ahahahaha!

Nora Owl: “WALTER! YOU JERK! You kids are impossible. I’m out of here!” Willa: “NO! Mama! Don’t leave me with Walter!” Walter: “Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Take a good look, Willa!”

11th Annual Corrales Rose Society Dr. Huey Tour

Contrail from a different location

Visit my post on my Zenfolio blog from May 2015 to learn more about the annual Dr. Huey tours: The 2nd Annual Corrales Rose Society Dr. Huey Tour. Our first Dr. Heuy Tour was on May 26, 2014. We didn’t publicize the first one. My post that day was called Day For The Dead. We were worn out from running all over Corrales in inclement weather, finding Dr. Hueys. Now that we are older and we have enough Dr. Hueys in our gardens, we don’t feel the need to run all over Corrales looking for Dr. Hueys.

“Ahem! Don’t forget about Dr. Spunk! I might have to give you a Vulcat nerve pinch, you stupid paparazzo!”

We saw Daddy Owl from the nest that used to be south of us.
