It’s chilly here in the early morning—in the forties—so I have to bundle up for my rove at Tohono Chul Park. Below two cold, Christmasy sights:
We have neither partridges nor pear trees at the Park, so how about six mourning doves in an agave?
As for snow on the ground, we don’t have that either, but on very cold days frost forms along the trails. Here’s a video of frost on a prickly pear skeleton, sublimating into the air as the sun begins to warm the desert floor.

Happy holidays to all my readers!
