Looking through the window of a guest room at the Harmony Motel, I am mesmerized at our beautiful desert gardens and then I spot my quail family walking merrily across the gardens on this beautiful breezy summer morning. Mama quail and her little darlings are a very pleasant scene to watch in the mornings, the little quails seeming so obedient and obliging to their parents; I almost hear Mama Quail telling her little ones “ Come along dears, there is no time for your quibbles, we need to hurry up to get to breakfast.”
Located in the high desert is our popular wildlife that we often encounter at our homes or in the Joshua Tree National Park, including bunny rabbits, quails, roadrunners, humming birds, lizards , bighorn sheep and many more. The high desert embraces her wildlife as any parent would, and provides them with the nurturing and comfort that all parents do for their young.
My favorite critter that I like observing, in the National Park is the bighorn sheep. At any given day, if you are visiting the famous 49 Palms hiking trail (less than one mile away from the Harmony Motel), or the Barker Dam trail, if you are lucky, you will encounter these delightful creatures, existing peacefully in the park, totally in harmony with their natural habitat.
They graze lazily, occasionally teasing and courting each other very tenderly. Their skin color blends with almost every tree bark in the park, and with their huge curly horns, they look at you fiercely, ready to charge if given any indication that an attacker is on site. They are a beautiful sight to watch. For the most part they sunbathe almost the whole day and graze at their leisure, allowing you to take pictures, and while staring at you silently. However it is said that they prefer to graze in isolation from humans, so I am very mindful of this. Their young are a pleasure to view, often meekly standing by their parents; they have a sweet and tender look about them, occasionally standing on their two hind legs (almost boasting the tricks that they can perform with their bodies).
My attention is suddenly awakened “to my present moment” as I watch the Harmony desert lizard, with his beautiful shiny, grey, chunky body, bolting across the patio, running furiously on his hind legs for a juicy bug that he has spotted for his breakfast this cool morning. He means business, and wastes no time in “being the predator” of the Harmony patio. These creatures will play the entire day, even in the hottest part of the day. They scurry around rapidly in total joy, enjoying the intensity of the sun on their backs, harmless. All I hear for most of the time as I walk on the pathways of the grounds are their rapid movements in the oleander bushes; they duck and dive as though playing hide and seek with their fellow mates.
Oh! There is Mr. Roadrunner, a rare delight, popping in, to say “ hi” to his friends, in the garden. He is truly a magnificent bird who prefers walking the grounds of the Harmony Motel, giving everyone his morning wishes rather than flying around. My eyes move to the naughty bunny that is chewing away at my beavertail cactus. My annoyance at the bunny is momentarily distracted, as I hear my favorite humming bird sounding her morning tune, perched high in the beautiful green fig tree of the garden. “Her humming resonates with me and reminds of what a wonderful place I am in right now”.
