Cactus Wrens!



If Cactus Wrens were rare, people would travel long distances to see them. But they're pretty common in the Southwest, so we don't make much of a fuss over them. I found them at several rest stops, mostly hiding out in the shrubbery. But this one came out in the open for a little while. What a treat!
