The wind is back today

It is too windy to boat but too nice to stay indoors.  We head out on a short nature trail that winds along the top of the mesa just outside of the campground with nice views of the lake.  Silver cholla are covered with delicate pale yellow blossoms.  Ash throated flycatchers dodge and dart after bugs stirred by the recent rain.  One proud parent swoops in with a butterfly hanging out both sides of its beak to deliver to a young one still on the nest.   Lark sparrows gather at the base of cactus.  It is a nice stroll after which we hang around camp this last day at Temple Bar.  There is always plenty to do.
