Along with bats and bees, the White Winged Dove plays a significant role in pollinating our Saguaro blooms. They also LOVE sipping nectar from the blossoms and eating the fruit so we’ve been hearing them COO from the time the buds show up until the last fruit fell about a week ago. With their favorite food source dwindling, there are less and less of them around now.

When it gets really hot, reviewing my archived water images leads to cool and refreshing thoughts of upcoming trips to places with streams and waterfalls…ahhhh. Mind over matter, right?! This image of a Mallard breaking up fall color reflections was taken last October on the West Fork Trail. One shot and the duck flew away. At first I almost deleted the image because it was kind of in between abstract and sharp but the more I look at it, the more I like it.

The White Winged Doves have been sitting on top of our Saguaros for a couple of weeks just waiting for the fruit to ripen but they’re not the only ones who love the fruit as evidenced by this Gila Woodpecker.
