Day Two



At the mostly outdoor Sonora Desert museum I got to observe the native plants in their own harsh, hot habitat at 114 degrees and later at Grant’s Pass in the Tuscon Mountains collect caterpillars by literally beating the acacia bushes over beater boards. Once I got four caterpillars with one whack – I was wanting success in whacking and got it. It was a good kind of whacking. It is amazing that flora and fauna can exist in the desert in such beauty and variety. (And that even here were the broken brown glass residue of revelers fleeing the city and strict parents and on.) For all the infinite variety of plants and animals (including humans) check out my pics on http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbks54/sets/72157621832436175/.
