I would like to introduce some of my very best friends.
All of these (except for the bobcat who was sleeping under our bird feeder, we live in a remote area) were taken in New Mexico wilderness areas. From sandhill cranes, to an eagle landing in the snow, a road runner with sky blue eyes, and a perrigrine falcon, along with big horn sheep, mountain goats, and my travelling companion.
Wilderness offers me a special type of comfort and companionship I can not find elsewhere.
