    Guess the desert is still home to all animals.

    A pair of these showed up the other night. Javelina Seems they wondered around the front yard for a hour or so. First time since we moved here in 2000 that they have made an appearance.

    Well, I learned something new on this one. For, I always thought Javelinas were a type of pig. I have never seen one while in the desert.

    I get them around mi casa a lot. They love the prickly pear cactus that grow in the wash across the street.

    This guy has been hanging around a bit lately as well:

    Yeah they do tend to bring the others out. Coyotes, and mountain lions tend to hunt them.

    Some years ago I had a golf outing at a resort near Scottsdale, The Boulders, and during the rounds there were many Javelinas wandering around the course, some had to be shooed away so we could play.
