Joshua Tree Birds

Just got back from a brief stay in Joshua Tree with my darling - beautiful peace and fauna, and a big old steak from Pappy & Harriet's.  We enjoyed ourselves the whole time despite the park being closed for the federal shutdown.  (Someone should fire those jokers and bring in replacements who will do the work.  Seriously.  But that's not what this post is about.)

But one of the things we enjoy most about JT is the bird life.  We're not birders, per se, but we do find our feathered friends fascinating and entertaining and we can watch them for hours.

Here are a couple we managed to catch on film this trip:
