Spring is Here!
Walking around the campground we spotted a number of birds, the usual suspects Road Runners and then a number of red breasted guys .... Robins. Not only are American Robins here but the trees are starting to get leaves so it must be spring.
First adventure was a walk to the overlook by the picnic area, something we hadn't done last year. Second adventure was a walk to the Rio Grande (we seem to do that a lot at many different places). We spotted a couple of grebes, a coot and a Great Blue Heron .... are we really in a desert? Second adventure was a drive to Boquillas Canyon. After a short hike we were having a great view of the canyon.
