A Desert Sunrise

Desert Sunrise

Sunrise is perhaps the prettiest time of the day. The light bursts through over the horizon letting the world know that a new day has begun, illuminating everything in its path with that beautiful early morning glow.

Deserts provide stunning landscapes that are simply unmatched anywhere else on the face of the earth. It's amazing how such picturesque scenery can be so harsh and unforgiving to God's creatures. But not all of them...


America's deserts are home to a wide variety of animal life, including coyotes, bobcats, red-tailed hawks, jackrabbits, snakes and many others. And of course this includes the legendary buzzard!

I guess we humans can enjoy the spectacular desert views like the one in today's picture, but we're better off leaving the desert lifestyle to the wildlife!
