We haven’t seen any animals in some time. I think they are all hiding from the mountain lions, as mountain lion sightings have been on the rise. The storms do bring in animals, though. I love our rains… they are so good for our forests and animals. We were lucky…

We decided to return to the scene of my award winning shot (see post here… https://kritterspix.com/category/photo-musings/ ) before the forest closed. With all the fires in AZ at the moment, we got quite the red sun at sunrise. Unfortunately, we were unable to stay long, as the AZ Game &…

We were at Schnebly Vista, (see my post here… https://kritterspix.com/2021/06/11/schnebly-hill-vista/ ), when we caught this little mouse gathering food.

It’s been a good week for animal sightings. We not only saw antelope grazing in a field, but we also saw turkey running in the snow. We even saw a herd of little horn sheep. I guess it does pay to get out. You can see more big horn sheep…

I never realized the trouble our animals had trudging through thick snow. With the threat of predators, swift winds, and deep snow, animals hunker down during large snow falls. I can only imagine them running in heavy snow, with unknown ground coverage, rocks, and trees beneath their feet. It made…

It almost seems like an oxymoron using the word ‘Best’ with ‘2020’. We have had more trips cancelled this year than we went on. We tried to go to Grand Canyon-North Rim on three separate occasions, and had every trip cancelled for one reason or another, including closures due to…
