Critter Fest

Our morning walk started with a beautiful crescent moon peeking through the clouds.

Clouds capped the Sandias.

Lots of cranes huddled together at dawn

The beavers were up early and splashing a warning that there was a dangerous paparazzo with a big yellow dog standing near the edge of the water.

A Bosque Bunny was up early, also.

Kitties: “It’s too early and too cold for you to be pestering us, pesky Paparazzo!”

Don’t you think it’s a little early to be hitting the catnip, Silver?

Spunk: “What are you looking at me for? Jake did it!”

Jake: “I didn’t do it! I swear! I’m telling you the truth. You know Spunk is lying. He’s always trying to get me in trouble.”

It looks like you got caught in the mosquito net again, Jake.

The morning clouds left a dusting of snow on the crest.

Dawn

Our walk at dawn, a sniff and pee for Jake, took much longer than normal this morning because of colors, critters, and a different route home that introduced Jake to an overwhelming variety of new smells and tumbleweeds to pee on.

Owlet

I pulled out the Bazooka lens to get some close-up and clear shots of the owlets.

Eye Of Owl

Dusk colors on our way to check on the owls

While it was too dark to see in the nest with the naked eye, my iPhone’s LiDAR was able to see Nora Owl in the nest giving me the eye. I assume she was feeding the owlettes that we have not seen yet.
