On the way home we drove out into the desert near here to see some petroglyphs and grinding mortars
These grinding mortars were used by the natives to grind corn or other seeds.
We spotted this bird near there. It is called a Phainopepla
On Tuesday, we went on a desert trek with some other Jeepers. One of our stops was this old abandoned mine.
On Wednesday, we went to the Cibola National Wildlife Refuge with our friends from Saylorville.
We saw a lot of birds that winter there. pelicans, snow geese, ducks, canadian geese, and sandhill cranes.
The visitor center had a nice solar panel array.
The hummingbirds were busy at the feeder.
On Friday we had another Jeep trek out to what they call the Blue Wall,
