New wake up call..............

Nope not on my cell phone, this would be the braying of one of those cute little burros I shared
with you the other day.

It surely is a startling sound coming from a sound sleep and the only light is from the very bright full moon.

Bogey has a new playmate

Well Hi there!!  Aren't you cute.

Well not really playmates in the strictest sense but he was quite interested that we were outside with these furry creatures and he wasn't.

An explanation needed here these are wild burros that roam these desert grounds.  They have been around for a very long time, back in the gold rush days............read about them here.  Norm calls it donkeyland!!

You brought a friend









Our neighbor John getting acquainted with these  nosy burros.

 


What a sweet face..........this one was quite small.





I think Bogey just might enjoy the hummingbirds that frequent the area  a lot more than these wild burros. 

We have visitors

Well they didn't really come to see us actually, if you want to know the truth we are visitors to them.  This is their land.  These burros have been here for many, many years.

I'm presuming these are the same burros that we saw in Oatman, Arizona last year.  Well not exactly the same ones but ya know what I mean.

I must go do some research on burros in this area. Cause I wonder how old these guys are, how long do they live and what the heck do they eat out here.  All I see is rock, dust, scrub brush and a few lakes.

At a distance they are cute little things but I'm not sure if they'd be that friendly up close and personal.
