High Desert wonders
Roam and rest in grassy meadows
Emerge from burrows, full of curiosity
Survey their surroundings while guarding their young
Fluff their feathers in the predawn chill
High Desert wonders
Fill a square foot of sand with tiny rainbows of color
Bloom at night, dispersing sweet scents on gentle breezes
Sparkle and glitter with layers of volcanic glass
Guide you forward into lands strange and beautiful

Thank you, Suzy! :)
These are great photos! I particularly like the weasel and owls.
Thanks, Barbara! I was lucky to get some great views of wildlife at Summer Lake.
What's not to smile about Siobhan?! Lovely choices. Never seen a quail to that - it was amazing!
Thanks, Tina! I was happy to see the quail perching so prettily in a sagebrush near the road.
Fantastic photos. Love the pronghorn and what a great shot of the weasel! Congratulations!
Thanks! I knew you'd like the pronghorns. The weasel was not shy at all and it was very close to me.
It's impossible NOT to smile. These photos are beautiful and work like magic.
Thanks so much, Egidio! 😀

I'm smiling! Lovely choices and Nature is the best thing for this. Loved the owls and big smile for the weasel!
