They act different here too than up in Oregon. There they zoom in and get their food and then zoom up to the trees and sit for a bit...never let you get close. Here, I've seen two that let me walk up to them and they just turn their head and look at me like "whoa, look what the cat drug out" .. It's Permie's world, we just live in it! ~CDS

I love his expression in the second frame! Akin to Wile E. Coyote. Permagrin wrote in post #5247943 just checking in I went to pioneer town today...it was fun to photograph (there were NO tourists there...it was like a ghost town) and spent a little bit of time familiarizing myself with Joshua Tree NP. Fun day. My MIL took me to dinner at Applebee's. She was tired of dieting. YAY ![]() Hey, I called Applebees on the way home tonight and had carside to go! timbernet wrote in post #5248165 Mooo - my 400mm is off and on its way to Canada... Finally!
