Part deux of finding myself figuratively "stuck" in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona, just east of the Colorado River. So naturally I decided to biologize and it turned out to be very satisfying immersing myself in the Sonoran Desert's summer diversity.

P.S. I know I mispronounced 'coquilletti'. Let me have it in the comments :)
