I cannot answer as to why I haven't spent two nights in the same location until now. I felt refreshed this morning not scrambling to get on the road and instead sleeping until after sunrise and taking it slow. Light birding around my campsite in the AM yielded some dapper sparrow shots amongst the Russian thistle.

I did the Arches ordeal. No news to report on that really. So I'll just give you my top three rock formations
- Three Gossips
- The Phallus
- Tower Arch
Birded in some mostly-closed wetlands afterwards. It was mid-afternoon so the activity was in a lull. But I got my third bluebird species! This one of the Western variety.

I think I'm about ready to see a familiar human face.
