Good Visiting with you, MaryEllen. The photography is wonderful. I could get into all of it except the snake. Never could get used to those guys! Carol

Hi CJ and ME,
Thanks for the demo on Keynote. Looks like just what I want to use for our road trips, gardens, property and projects.
I tried using your e-mail links but nothing happened… maybe my G5/Safari is screwed up… I’m still trying to get over Outlook.
Where is your B&B? You say 20 or 30 miles north of Tucson, but without a map I’m a basket case. Probably the result of taking ROTC map reading at UW-Madison. Last year our GPS was stolen and I’ve been “lost” for 8 months…. will probably get a replacement soon… a hand-held one that has trails and altitude on it. I’m thinking your B&B is North East of Tucson… maybe beyond Mount Lemon… up Catalina highway. Lot of bikers going up there every weekend. Haven’t been to Mount Lemon in 20 years. I don’t bike any more, but maybe my son would like to do some desert mountain biking on one of his visits… he’s finishing up at UCLA in the Library Science masters program.
Thanks again for the presentation, CJ. Your work product is beautiful. And you should also be in the Apple ads on TV… there’s “cool”… and then there’s “inspired cool”.
I’ll have to check out your book.
Do you ever lead any programs on any of the birding festivals? I know Bob usually gets in a dragon-fly program.
Jim

Thanks to both of you!

Glad you asked the roadie question, Jeff. The adults, (there are also offspring, again) display their colors on their face and keep their body posture ’stretched’ with a lean always towards where they think the snake is located.

The birds still do an larm call when they approach the ‘kill zone’ An ornithologist here, this past week said it isn’t unusual for the birds to keep up that behavior for weeks.

Thanks for looking, more to come!!!!!!!!
