Round Tail Ground Squirrel


My apologies for not having a blog post yesterday. After breakfast I went golfing and it became a very long day. (You can take that anyway you imagine). Anyway, we played a desert golf course. Lots of roadrunners, lots of desert cottontails, and literally thousands of round tail ground squirrels (or as they are non-affectionately known as "pack rats"). These little guys would be scurrying around everywhere. Frequently, they would come up to the golf cart as if begging for food. They would stand on hind legs and look so cute. I was there to golf and not photograph, but I thought I'd share one of my photos from here at The Azure Gate. That's a fishhook barrel cactus behind him.
