    … that is what this male redwing blackbird seems to be saying as he competes with two other males also singing their hearts out this afternoon, joyfully informing the world (and the female redwing blackbirds in the area) that he is available and probably the best choice they can make. Their songs were beautiful and given the large flocks of redwing blackbirds you see in the fall, they are probably pretty successful … and they are very handsome creatures.

    Finished a big project early afternoon and then headed down to Cottonwood to get some paint and saw a light dusting of snow on the upper reaches of Mingus Mountain … thinking that the San Francisco Peaks which are more than 4,000’ higher, probably picked up some pretty good accumulations of snow.  I’ll find out on the first good day (lower surface winds) that I can be in the air. The air temperature decreases at 2C per thousand feet, so if snow is accumulating on Mingus at 7800’ +/-, then the air temp at the peaks (12,637’) will be about 9C cooler than that … hoping for close ups of snow on the peaks and if I’m lucky there will be enough moisture in the air to give me clouds around 10,000’ so I can get more shots of snowcapped peaks poking up through the clouds.

    We’re into the weekend … keep breathing, keep smiling and give thanks for this incredible little planet we call home … enjoy life and those you share it with.

    Back Monday morning … at least that is the plan.

    And in this journey over a thousand hills and valleys called life, he is wisest who
    is patient where the way is hard, has faith when he does not understand, and carries
    into the dark places the light of a cheerful heart.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
