First Sighting
Besides finding the Queen of the Night, we also saw our first Poppy on Monday! It was really tiny but I spotted a few more so let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope for a big show!

The boulders in and around the Marcus Landslide trail are humongous! Just compare these with the Paloverde and the giant Saguaro growing among them. Construction on a new North Access parking lot starts soon and this trail is expected to be officially opened in the Spring of 2012. Because it is relatively easy hiking with spectacular views of the Superstitions and Mazatzals and has incredible geology, I predict it will be one of the most popular trails in the Preserve.

It always surprises me when I come across a Dragonfly while hiking in the Preserve because I associate them with water and there is usually none in sight! I followed this female Variegated Meadowhawk (sympetrum corruptum) for a while and was rewarded when she finally lighted and actually let me get very close.
