Love Letters~3

We were hoping Saturday would be our last trip to the Dromedary Peak area to complete the Love Letters geo-art. The temperatures were to be perfect, in the low 60ºs, sunshine and a light breeze. Our final trip for this season did not disappoint in unique flora or fauna, especially because I took the good camera along for the final trek.

Red Tailed Hawk and her/his nest

another photo

and one more

it finally flew away, but kept an eye on us and the truck

a different bird scouting the area

my other score of the day...a crown blooming 

pin cushion cactus

a fairy duster plant

the brownish, maroon-ish grass is even pretty

a lizard just above and to the left of ©

it really blends well with the desert floor

holey prickly pear

partial carcass of a jack rabbit

a perfect find to end the Love Letter geo-art

the 3 trips were 12 miles of walking according to Hubby's GPS calculations

because the roads were NOT next to the geocaches

but that's okay because we/I got to see some amazing things on the 3 trips

which I would not have seen had we completed the geo-art in 1 day

**Thank You JFOW for an amazing end to this geocaching season**
