Yo...what an amazing birding venture; great photos. You did well in the heat! Yes that's something I'm kind of mindful of in the Aussie bushland, birding, that don't always keep focused on what's 'up', but also keep an eye out on what's on the ground. Snakes in the bush aren't one of my hopeful encounters at allCarole M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13261384312136535762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-4674319121793599122013-07-23T20:18:52.073-07:002013-07-23T20:18:52.073-07:00So many wonderful adventures for you this summer. ...So many wonderful adventures for you this summer. I like the idea of birding south of the border and you captured some beauties. But really, a big brave guy like you scared of a few javelina. I've never really found them aggressive, just obnoxious when then snuffle up the ground bird seed and tip things over in the yard. Sure hope you're still planning a trip to the North Rim.

Some wonderful birds, and great photos.<br /><br />Just been reading the Arizona Game and Fish Department's words on Javelina (an animal I'd not heard of before - except by its other name: Peccary) and they sound quite placid!
