Hi. I'm zee, and I live full time in a small motor home, mostly in the southwestern states of the US. I tend to "boondock," that is, park for free on federal lands, without electricity, far from people, and that results in my seeing many birds, coyotes, elk, and at least tracks of mountain lions and bear.
This summer, I've been around Flagstaff, Arizona, in the ponderosa pine-covered mountains, and have seen a Western Tanager, all three types of bluebirds, a red-shafted flicker, a plain titmouse, an osprey (flying overhead--its wing tips were translucent white in the sunlight), a white-breasted nuthatch (which I swear made me somewhat nauseated to watch walk upside down), a hairy and an acorn woodpecker, a female pine grossbeak, and many more, almost all new birds for me.
I only have internet access every couple weeks, typically, so I won't post a whole lot, but I appreciate the forum being here for me.
