Amy Goes to Colorado

Kya and I enjoyed a couple days at Linda’s house in Colorado. You might recall Linda from the rat incident. Anyway, here’s where Linda lives with her three dogs, Holly, Hoot, and Hopp, and her two cats, Bandit and Lil Darlin:

And here’s one good reason why she lives there:

Linda leases her acreage for […]

Thursday Prairie Dog Blogging

I suppose this doesn’t exactly count as wildlife photography, since what has been tastefully edited out of the background of these photos is a Sonic Drive-In. Yep, smack-dab on Cerrillos Road in Santa Fe, these little critters scamper around the parking lot begging french fries all day long (the one in the bottom photo […]

Tuesday Roadrunner Blogging

Wow. Just wow. This roadrunner hung about in the garden porch for 20 minutes or so yesterday, looking in the windows and hunting for bugs in the plants. I didn’t get any good shots through the screen and I was afraid to scare her away by opening the door. But then […]

Monday Bunny Blogging!!!!!!

It’s a bunny year here. Last night we saw four in the course of half a mile. Below is a wee cottontail that I flushed when I came through the land gate on Wednesday. It ran under this juniper and froze, repeating its mantra, “You can’t see me, you can’t see me, […]

Look Who the Rain Brought Over

Don’t worry, there’s lots more ASDAH stuff that I’ll be posting over the next few days or weeks. While I was in class tonight, though, there was a big rainstorm, and when I came home, look who was waiting by my front step!
Of course, given my complete lack of memory about 6th grade science, […]

Back with a vengeance

Hello, dear readers! I have been away for a few days of seriously necessary self-indulgence and socializing. I headed up to the land to spend a day or two with Kya and meet her long-time friends visiting from Colorado, and I have returned with a clear head, restored perspective, renewed sense of humor, […]

Bug Update

Okay, ew. I was going to tell you how, the morning after, I found what I was pretty sure was the corpse of the spawn that freaked me out the other night, and how I bestowed many kisses on my sweet bug-death-dealing kitten’s head in gratitude–but now they don’t even wait for nighttime to […]

Bug.

I am now going to reveal a carefully guarded secret—-Albuquerque has a serious cockroach problem. Actually, I only assume it is a secret, since I myself would have trumpeted this news until folks across the nation associated Albuquerque more with the cockroach than the balloon festival. I imagine the city leaders meeting in […]
