Mexico 2
Right on the edge of the Sonora Desert there was a watermelon field with big irrigation pumps and a pool where this pretty Herron was minding his/her own business, and was polite enough to pose.
At one of the rest areas I found a trail that wound its way into the desert, but I went no further than this point, and I decided this was not a good place to camp.
Then there is this side of Tijuana, which gives the place, I think, a undeserved general bad rap. I do think this was a creative, or not, name for this joint. I chose to not go in and find out.
Somewhere there are a lot of not so happy chickens. There were dozens of these trailers on the road, all empty at the time. Pollo anyone?
Until I am proven wrong I think this was a Magpie bird sitting comfortably on this cactus.

Why is it that you are traveling the world, viewing all sorts of scary warning signs about animals, but only seeing things like dogs and birds....and I am back in good old Pennsylvania with a basement full of snakes. Shedding snakes, now dead snakes...perhaps I should go west and you should come here?
