NOT Cotton Candy - Look Closely
 |
| We were on a nature hike with our grandsons over the weekend at Granite Mountain when we came upon this strange sight. Look closely at the top left - the pod was writhing with worm-like insects, which I have found out from fellow bloggers are "tent caterpillars" Needless to say this was a very cool catch for the boys! A fun day :) |

Willow Flycatcher - Wed. Wings
 |
| Willow Flycatcher - Prescott Nat'l Forest First time I have ever seen this bird in the forest - maybe due to migration. He didn't hang around too long so I was glad to get the pic. P.S. catch the "do" :) |

Munchies on Monday - Javelina
 |
| Javelina (peccary) are wild pig-like mammals and I often see them on our morning hikes in the woods.They eat roots but I have seen them enjoying an occasional cactus. Javelina usually travel in groups and I have counted up to 20 in my yard. (My flower selection is geared for Javelina tolerant foraging) |
 |
| Javelina have poor eyesight but if threatened they will charge at dogs and humans. This was as close as I would get to him/her drinking water at the creek :) |
