Santa Cruz - wildlife throughfare

    Coyotes, toads, cottontails, jackrabbits, lizards, snakes, hawks, kestrels, burrowing owls - all make their homes or travel thru the Santa Cruz.  One year the Great Blue Heron that was hanging out at Kennedy Lake even showed up in the wash.  Sometimes after the first heavy rains of the season you can literally see the tadpoles flowing down the river; but then the rains have to last a week or two for any to survive to toadhood.""
The Santa Cruz wash after a reasonable monsoon season. I know the ecologists don't want the Salt Cedars, but they are the only big trees in the wash and many birds live in them! -- Santa Cruz flowing gently during Monsoon season --gv the seasonal Santa Cruz River --gv
