Besides badgers, here are some of the other sightings on yesterday's short walk in Sabino Canyon:
Lots of people at 6:00am...probably trying to beat the heat,
but it was already hot and muggy!
jack rabbit
white-tailed deer
gopher snake crossing the road
snake climbing on the tree
striped tail
pyrrhuloxia, singing
agave
hummingbird
verdin on mesquite tree
palo verde seed pods
one...two...
three javelinas
That was more wildlife than I typically see in this area.
It's usually quiet here except for the people.
Bye for now. Have a great day!

This morning I saw three young American badgers. I did the best I could taking pictures from the road, not wanting to move any closer and possibly scare them, and not knowing if their mother was nearby.
The badgers were under the shaggy mesquite tree on the left:
Two badgers were tumbling around playing with each other and one was digging, maybe foraging for small animals such as ground squirrels.
What a morning! In addition to the badgers I also saw javelinas, deer, a jack rabbit and a large snake all before 7:00 am.
