This cracks me up so much there are hardly words for it. That’s Peter (Petra?) Cottontail in his/her arroyo-wall den in the wilds of Spring Creek Basin.
There’s probably 2 feet of arroyo wall above the den, and there’s probably another 4 or 5 feet below the bottom of the pic to the bottom of the arroyo. (The long lens is great for photographing mustangs at a distance but not so handy at capturing smaller critters closer at hand!) Pretty clever and pretty safe, really, though I don’t know if the bunny is the original excavator.
In addition to Peter (Petra), Jack (rabbits) abounds (har) in our little slice of heavenly planet.

Greasewood piercing

All the cool kids are doing it!
Fortunately, the greasewood sliver seems to be skewering only a bit of hair and not actually piercing Hayden’s cheek. 🙂 These ponies are so fashion forward!

Backed by beauty

Storm was in the-sun-is-setting shadow while Temple Butte still was lit by end-of-day sunshine.
In lovely news, Spring Creek Basin and Disappointment Valley got a bit of wet stuff yesterday. In fact, the weather has a been a little monsoonish the last couple of days. If that’s so, it’s either really early … or really late (the monsoons passed us by last year). We’ll take some more wet stuff, thank you. 🙂

Puzzle and Spirit look gorgeous always … but in that light? Wowzers. Pretty, pretty pinto ponies.

Just in case you thought you still had time to visit Spring Creek Basin and beat the gnats … too late. 🙂 They’re really not biting yet, though. …

Golden run

Gaia makes a run to the safety of the band when bachelors came too close (which wasn’t really that close).
