Coyote shares his thoughts on being surveilled June 23, 2021 …and probably on the bobcats as well. Seeing the wildlife around here makes my day. This bunny has good reason to hide in the Shaw’s agave and Cleveland sage. Juvenile cooper’s hawks raised in the canyon finger have been crying to be fed for weeks now. There’s a lot of circle of life behavior to observe in the yard and adjacent preserves. Valley Carpenter Bee working a white sage. Anise swallowtail butterfly pausing on golden cereus. This Texas red yucca is currently being relished by a Costa’s hummingbird, a bird species I most often see in the desert. It’s no ocotillo or chuparosa, but he thinks it’ll do in a pinch.
