sky island butterflies and bees and not as many birds these days
out here as a secret third thing neither adjusted for the cold nor the heat
February 8, 2026 at 8:13 PM

spring sundays at saguaro east when we mean to go up the hill but the bladderpod is absolutely ripping so we are meandering through the flats. we love a good bladderpod.

in this age of renewed plagues and at a personal age of possible plagues, it is important to remember when you have hiked into some stick or whatever. it was just a stick, it's fine i mean i didn't even hurt myself sleeping so it's fine.

sabino is p good at weird little guys. monarch. white patched skipper. jewelflowers. a local giving a nature hike and missing the nice sparrow and the monarch and the gilias.
February 4, 2026 at 8:01 PM
the problem with sabino and frequently
going to sabino is that we are used to the creek being dry and not paying attention to where we stand when watching our new desert marble besties and these boots are still not waterproof in any way * waves at the phoebe *

i don't want to go out anywhere spring interesting when it is this windy bc it makes photographing weird little guys too hard. also the desert is falling down in alarming ways
February 4, 2026 at 7:09 PM
but also i would go over there for spring wildflowers and deciding when that is has gotten weird anyway whatever it's 80F and windy and gem show touristy

February 4, 2026 at 6:11 PM
someday i will hike saguaro np west but every time i get serious about it, someone crashes off gates pass and closes the road
February 4, 2026 at 6:11 PM
hate the pea gravel, mildly entertained that you can just ice an ankle in the creek on the way down

sky island up a big stupid hill afternoon but we're picking the hill based on how much fountain grass you have to wade theough no that is too much fountain grass.

the mustards are waist high
