Sonoita Creek State Natural Area

Can you see this grasshopper - on the rock!


The bull who did not like us being in his territory! We had to pass by him and stopped to pray. We then planned our escape route if he charged us and saw there were few options.Jim picked up a large club and he decided to walk away. Praise God!






So many beautiful grasshoppers! All different colors - unlike any we have seen before!










Monsoon clouds that will probably bring us rain tonight.




This bug is being attached by ants. We thought the antw would have lunch, but we watched to see the outcome. The worm had many defensive moves and eventually shook off the ants and outran them!
