PRINTS

I entered a print in the New Mexico Veteran's Art Show on July 1st, for the opening on July 5th, 2024:


This print was part of an "Arte en Vivo" event in El Paso on December 1, 2016 -- and based on a drawing from Tucson on November 17, 2014.

TADPOLES

We had a hard summer rain on Saturday night, June 29th, which left a large pool of standing water next to the rail road tracks behind Quelab.  I inspected the pond less than 24 hours later, on Sunday afternoon, and only saw big dragonflies. 

The standing water pool behind Quelab,
on June 30th, 2024 --
I saw lots of dragonflies, but no tadpoles


However the next day, on Monday afternoon (July 1st, 2024), when much of the pool had evaporated, I saw many small tadpoles in the desert pond:

Two days after the rain burst (July 1, 2024),
I saw small tadpoles swimming in the standing water pool

The Rio Grande flooded in May 2023, and later I saw lots of little toads in the Rio Grande, on the west side of the Caesar Chavez/Dolores Huerta bridge in Albuquerque:
