We met up with friends from Wisconsin, Tom & Carol Sykes who took us to Ramsey Canyon where they are volunteers.
We walked up the trail to where we found the sought after Red-faced Warbler.
Yarrow's Spiny Lizard warming up in the sun.
They then took us over to Ash Canyon where they volunteer weekly.

Love & Prayers,
