The three owlets south of us are doing the same routine as the three owlets did last year — the two older owlets are getting out of the nest leaving the runt stuck in the nest.

Hoot Owl at Dusk
While walking back home in the dark from what turned out to be a 6.5 mile walk, I could hear the owls hooting at each other. As I looked around to see where the hoots were coming from, I saw what looked like a large cat at the tip top of a cottonwood, backlit by the afterglow of the sunset. The owl was too far away, and it was too dark, for me to get anything but silhouettes of it.

Reflections In Muddy Water
Just south of the Alameda bridge, there are various ponds filled with muddy water from the Rio Grande, that reflect nicely on a still day.
The Old Church
We went to a talk by Jane Butel on the culinary history of the Rio Grande Valley in the Old San Ysidro Church in Corrales.
Colorful Dawn East and West
Dawn: the first two photos looking east, the last two looking west.
Sunset Saturday
Cottonwood, sagebrush, tamarisk and other plants in the low sun on Saturday. I managed to get a different view of the Sandias from above Bernalillo as the last bit of sunlight kissed them goodnight.
