I spoke too soon! @imeugenius just as you predicted, a couple of more hummingbirds have made pit stops in the yard on their way south. Serendipitously, I caught this broadtail in the sage.

Little rufous in the backyard during the rainy cool weather last week. He was really enjoying the pomegranate and membrillo trees.

Aspen season!
.
It’s been a little while since I posted. This little pug, our youngest, lost most of her vision over Labor Day weekend. It’s been a challenging month trying to figure out what to do for her and learning new routines. Her first outing was to see the aspens and get some cool mountain air. There’s probably a Wendell Berry/Annie Dillard life lesson in there somewhere.

Little dude was trying to land just so on this leaf that would just barely support his weight.
