One of my treasured memories from Santa Fe was of a cold winter morning when
a big flock of robins, juncos and scrub jays began noisily converging on a
little thicket of junipers; after a few minutes a Great Horned Owl emerged
from the thicket, cwaddling on the ground, blinking and covered with frost
and sparkling in the early morning sunlight!
