Spring Trip to Jemez

 while up in the Jemez Mountains yesterday we saw this rock squirrel and his mate chasing each other round and round a large rock. He moved and blurred each photo I took just a bit except the one where one of them though it was hid under the rock. At least I got his pic but the chipmunks and tassel ear squirrel moved even faster

 The Oregon grape (and it is not really a grape more like a holly) was the only thing I saw that was blooming and it wasn't quite all the way open. I saw more of these blooming than I have seen in many years. They don't get very big here in New Mexico like the do in Oregon and like the tame plants you can buy in the nurseries.

Pics of trees that I liked.
