We didn’t see as much wildlife as we would have liked during our trip to the Four Corners, but we did see an owl in Red Rocks, lots of lizards, and dinosaur tracks. We also saw free range cattle and horses, fake dinosaurs along the old Route 66, as well as wildlife warning signs.

Every so often, whenever the urge hits, I’ll join in any challenges that catch my fancy.
This post is in response to Ingrid’s Wandering Wednesday wildlife prompt. π
Love the dinosaur track. As much time as we’ve spent in this part of the country, I have yet to see a dinosaur footprint. Nice collection of animals and thanks for the link π

Thanks, Ingrid. We saw a lot of dinosaur tracks right outside of Tuba City. It was fun putting together the few creatures we saw!

There is no shortage and I don’t often let myself get involved as I have so many other things I’m trying to do. We’ll see how long I last with this one!

Interesting that your Holbrook has dinosaurs and our Holbrook has a submarine in the park!

For sure, Carol. Holbrook, AZ has many other quirky things as well, just like yours, as it contains many of the kitschy hotels and signs and restaurants from the Old Route 66. I’ll do a whole post on the Route 66 part of AZ in a future post. π

The donkey and the dinosaur made me smile. π How exciting to see a dinosaur’s foot impression, and the owl is pretty exciting too – and messy.

Thanks, I thought they were funny too, but no one else seemed to think they were! We saw a lot of dinosaur footprints at this place outside of Tuba City. It was fun to see. That owl was very messy indeed!

Isn’t that cow above actually a bull?
