I spotted this roseate skimmer on the SCVN Lizard Walk this past Saturday morning, down by Sabino Creek.

I try not to spend much time in Sabino Canyon at this time of the year because of the triple-digit temperature days. Instead, I go for neighborhood walks early in the morning. However, this morning I decided to go on one of Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists (SCVN) scheduled Lizard Walks. (I will post images in a later posting.)
I had planned on spending no more than two hours on the walk, which started at 8:00 a.m. As it neared 10:00 a.m., I left the group and started walking Bear Canyon Trail back to the Visitor Center, pacing myself and drinking and staying hydrated. Soon, I came across a Pima County Sheriff and EMS personnel. They were tending to a middle-aged woman who had a heatstroke. Sadly, this happens more often than it should.
As I came up to the sheriff’s deputy, he asked me if I was alright. I assume this twenty-something deputy took one look at this sweaty 83-year-old man and wanted to know if I was alright, which was nice of him. I replied I may not look like it but that I was fine and moved on.

Twenty-one people participated in the last SCVN 2014 Lizard Walk (October 11, 2014).
Although the count was low, observing mostly side-blotched, desert spiny, and zebra-tailed lizard lizards,
it was an enjoyable walk on a beautiful fall desert morning.
