While the MV Explorer was docked in Casablanca, I took the field trip to the Atlas Mountains. I captured this image of a Berber farmer holding a sickle in his hand and wave to us as we approached the village where we were going to stop for a cooking lesson and lunch. I didn’t know that anyone harvested wheat this way anymore.

While on an afternoon walkabout in my backyard I came upon a small fawn with spots trying to hide behind some weeds. Its mother apparently considered my backyard a safe daycare center. A decade earlier, a fawn was left at my doorstep (20100514). I haven’t seen any fawns yet this year. The deer fence is doing a good job of keeping the deer out and away from the fruit trees and wildflower meadow. The deer continue to patrol the fence looking for a way in.

While on a field trip to Doñana National Park in Spain we stopped near a wheat field to strech our legs and do some birdwatching. I noticed several bright Red Poppy flowers in the field. I guess that they are a native “weed”.

My father and I spent the day on a field trip to Gibraltar. We took bus to the summit of the Rock of Gibraltar. Our guide cautioned everyone to keep their pockets and daypacks securely closed and to avoid exposing any food, as the wild monkeys can be highly aggressive. Numerous monkeys (Barbary macaques) were encountered along the way and upon reaching the visitor center at the summit.
