The highlights from my exploration in the Anza-borrego desert area.

Hello, fellow inaturalists! In this journal post, I am highlighting the observations I recorded in my current visit to the Anza Borrego state Park area.

The earliest observation I took in March. It is a mule deer antler that I stumbled upon (well, more like stumbled over) on my daily walks. I'm still trying to figure out how old it is and how it fell off.

The later observation I took in July, when it was searing hot outside. In the heat of the day, A roadrunner came up to the shadow of a small tree to cool off its body, while I kept my distance. It stayed there for about 2 minutes, but then darted off back into the Thickets.

A rather later observation I recorded in September. It was a juniper. It was a beautiful green gem in the middle of the tan and beige sand, and i just had to take a photo of it.

The latest 2 photos are of a coyote melon and a cholla cactus, which I found very intriguing.
