Falls Rainbows




Shuttled over to Siberia for early Breakfast.....afterwards looked out across Stoneman Meadow to see if the morning...eight thirty by then!...Sun was making a Falls Rainbow...no luck...friend came along for the walkabout and we Shuttled back to the Village, where the Rainbow was spotted through the Shuttle Window....hopped off and took some pics and clips...picked up and walked to the A. Rooms....same route as yesterday!...thought to point out the Podium I discovered yesterday....area where the Deer were...and is known as 'Church Bowl'..."oh!"...my friend said, "I have lots of pics from here and the Podium!"...hmmph...anyway...friend cant walk too good and we made a careful loop over the Three Arches Bridge and Sugar Pine Bridge and back to the A. Rooms....had hoped for some critters!...just a couple Grey Squirrels....Shuttled to Last Chance for early lunch...just a snack...still full from Breakfast!...discovered a Chicaree right by the entrance...dont know how I missed this Douglas Squirrel...and I walk by the Cedar it was climbing everyday...see clip...reported that going back several Winters there have been two Chicarees living here...but just one this Winter...and a bit of a mystery where they would disappear too during the Summer....back by the Creek, I might speculate!...where I see them...Chicaree is probably the 'small squirrel with long tail' reported a couple weeks ago...back at the Cabin, I curled up for a nap and went out again late in the afternoon...it is soo quiet!...critter wise...lots of bangity bang construction and traffic noises...report of Bobcat by Lower Falls....and Coyote was seen from the Shuttle in Stoneman Meadow in the morning....sunny cool and blue....forecast says chance of rain soon...and there were a few clouds in the evening...
