Art 2021 Tehachapi! The paintout was in May. This horse trail is in Sycamore Canyon and is hiked on foot also. The spring flowers were still amazing and the sun and shadows emphasized the brilliance of the colors.

The final morning of the paintout in Tehachapi was spent with wild Morgan mustangs in Oak Creek Canyon. There were about 85 horses in the herd with 7 stallions and their mares and also young stallions not accepted by any group. There were several foals wanting to join the fun, but staying fairly close to Momma for a quick snack when the mood struck.

In Bear Valley Springs, just above Tehachapi, CA. In May, a hike in Sycamore Canyon.

In Bear Valley Springs there is an indigenous elk herd that wander the valley unrestricted. They are often found hanging out in the meadow around the 3 lakes in the valley. Although most people know to stay way back from these magnificent wild animals, some people new to the valley get way too close to these wild animals, endangering themselves and the elk.

One of the cutest wildlife are baby fawns. These fawns are in Bear Valley Springs, California. The have been "hidden" by their mother while she goes off to eat. They are curious and look around instead of just lying under the large pine tree.

In the Tehachapi area there is a large heard of mustangs. They look like they have morgan bloodlines and the history of the area seems to back this up. These horses are beautiful and more refined than the typical mustang. They are on private property so to see them one must contact the person keeping watch over them.

In the small town of Murell’s Inlet, South Carolina, is the Huntington Beach State Park. Arriving about two hours before dark, we were delighted to see the variety of birds having a feast at low tide and frolicking in the shallow water, also spotting a few alligators. As the evening drew near, the sun glimmered through the clouds, creating a shimmer of beauty as it reflected in the waters of the swamp.

The Rio Chama, a tributary of the Rio Grande, is a scenic river in northern New Mexico, near Abiquiu, known for its colorful canyons and rock formations which were carved by the river. There are areas of moderate rapids, but this section of the river in August is pretty placid and lends
itself to fishing on a lazy summer afternoon. This particular year the surrounding plant life was very green for the deserts of New Mexico. The sky, clouds, and plants reflected in the water lends an atmosphere of restfulness.
