Capturing wildlife photos is so much easier when she's riding shotgun in my car. Ripley, our blue and gold macaw, loves to go on trips with us - as long as we're home before dark.

Mexico City is just different. Got a 3-taco lunch with salsa, chips, and a beer for lunch before heading back to work, because that's what we do here. Folks in Mexico are a bit more laid back, and I'm a fan. It's beautiful here.
