Shade

Shade, originally uploaded by angryparsnip.

Love the bright, clear Tucson light the shadows are fabulous.

In the hot so very hot Summer months shade is important, sought out,
and so very much needed. . . Beyond the cooling necessity of it to
plants, animals and people. . . what I love is the patterns that move
across the landscape that merge into twilight.

This view is the east side yard where my small grove of citrus trees
are. In the early morning and evening lots of animal and birds come
out on this side of the house.
I have seen resting in the hot part of the day Javelinas, Coyote and
a Bobcat, not at the same time Thank Goodness ! I leave much of my
land wild with just a-bit of raking and pruning here and there so the
wildlife and I can coexist. The white paint is for a bark fungus that
we are trying to get rid of. . .

Happy Monday ! parsnip
