There are more species of ants in Southern Arizona than anywhere else in the world, except for the Amazon of course.
The Sonoran Desert is a hotspot for biodiversity!

Yesterday at Whitewater Draw
I spotted this male Blue Grosbeak
Then he flew off and disappeared
I am usually better off
just staying at home
where I can get
close primo photos
of hawks and whatnot
Here's Alice
I did not know this
The Killdeer
is called that
because when they call
it sounds like "kill deer!"
This one just sounded
like loud high-pitched
gibberish
Yesterday at Whitewater Draw
Yesterday at Whitewater Draw
there were two Killdeer
on the ground calling
to each other
Look close and
see the tongue
as the mouth
is open while calling
