I almost stepped on a Long-nosed Snake three feet from the parking lot at the end of my hike.
The snake paid no attention to me; its head was in a hole as I walked around it.
Highlight of the day.

I watched (3) Queens flying about 6' beside me in a straight line formation..
Graceful, beautiful, majestic...They are a sight to see.

Sunflowers are plentiful in the Park.
I stop and check them for insects at least once while on a trail.
I usually find something to admire and photograph.

I spent this past week in Ft. Davis.

I bounced between the Davis Mountains SP and the Chihuahuan Desert Nature Center.

I enjoyed watching the birds at the State Park...Acorn Woodpeckers, Woodhouse's Scrub-Jays and one Summer Tanager to name a few.
The two bird blinds were active!

The plants were wonderful to view while hiking on the Nature Center Trails.

Looking forward to my next trip!
