TEETH at last!




 I'm still having to learn to eat with them, but so relieved the ordeal is over. I think the dentist is great and did his best. Naturally, there are things I would like to have done differently, but I'm not complaining. After not being able to chew for 8 months my jaw is weak and doesn't have real strength to chew, but I'm hoping that will improve. I feel it's important to not overdo and develop some kind of painful jaw issues.


I went to Musquiz Lake a few days ago and enjoyed seeing this bobcat there. It's extremely rare for me to see one in the daytime, so always a treat.



An adult Allen's Hummingbird showed up at the town feeder yesterday. Still here today. I hope it hangs around for a while.

Where is Musquiz Lake?

Lovely teeth! But you are smart to build your jaw muscles slowly.
You photos are great! We rarely see bobcats, but we do see a couple of gray foxes from time to time.

Musquiz Lake is about a 20 minute drive north of Alpine. It's right along the highway so you have to bird from the highway. Traffic is ferocious, but birding is good.
