April 25, 2017 at Bosque del Apache NWR, New Mexico


This is actually from yesterday, before I left Sunny Flats. It is a Nabokov's Satyr, a specialty of southeast Arizona (but found in Mexico too). I had photographed one a few years ago but this is a better image.

A Say's Phoebe nest in the entryway to the visitor center at Bosque del Apache NWR.

Young American Coots being fed....something.

A Southwestern Fence Lizard. A similar species, the Prairie Lizard, occurs in southwest South Dakota. Years ago the Fence Lizards were all considered one species but now there are several.
