Spring Chukar

These guys are sure easier to spot against the green spring grasses compared to the dry grasses of fall.

I heard several chuk-chuk-chuks in the Yakima canyon this morning.

Easier to spot than the rattlesnake you are standing on, lol

Don't think that I wasn't thinking about those. Not sure if I dislike the thought of seeing those little buzz worms or finding a tick on me or the dogs worse. Both creep me out. Probably worry more about the dogs encountering a snake and them getting bit. I have been told that my uncontrollable swearing when a snake surprises me is a sight to behold.
