This little fellow is an expert in his field! A Grey Squirrel that loves peanuts. How does a Squirrel in this part of the country grow up to know that this is something good to eat. The Peanuts don't grow locally, so someone must have taught them that they are good!
I have the week off so I had an opportunity to get out early to the riparian preserve. Frankly summer in Phoenix is not the best time of year to go birding, But I enjoyed myself and watched a few hummingbirds enjoying a mesquite tree. This one a female. I’m told by an expert that its probably a black-chinned hummingbird (my original ID was Anna’s Hummingbird)

Alpine Chough / Alpendohle (Pyrrhocorax graculus)
My first sighting of the awesome Alpine Chough! This was one of a pair that I was pleasantly surprised to see hanging out for a few minutes on the rooftop of the solitary "Grubighütte", situated ~1800m up the at the top of the Grubigstein mountain - just next to the famous 3000m Zugspitze.
Other than their chosen environment, they can be told from other crows by their red legs and slim, downturned bills.
Alpine Choughs are high mountain experts, and are thought to nest at a higher altitude than any other bird. Their eggs are adapted to the thin atmospheres, enabling improved oxygen uptake and reduced water loss. (Wiki)
I was fooled when I first saw this, thinking it was a real dragonfly.
(Dedicated to my old E-410 ... a great introduction to Olympus cameras).
Not a tank expert, but appears to be a Soviet made T-62 tank. It sits just off the road at Beale AFB, CA, near the entrance to the gun range.
Not knowing the history of this tank, it was probably one used by the US Marine Corps. The United States Marine Corps (USMC) obtained T-62 tanks from Egypt and Israel. The USMC used these tanks at the National Training Center.
The T-62 Main Battle Tank is a Soviet-era armored vehicle.
It was designed in the early 1960s and saw extensive use during the Cold War.
The T-62 featured advanced technology for its time, including a smoothbore gun and composite armor.
The T-62 Main Battle Tank (MBT) was the last in a series of excellent Soviet tank designs that began with the T-34 in the late 1930s.
T-62 production began in 1962, and an estimated 20,000 were built during the next eight years.
The T-62 was not as successful as Soviet designers had hoped. Its main gun could not be aimed low enough to deal with attacking infantry, and its rate of fire was slowed by the complicated fire control system.
I'll readily admit I thought this might be a fragment of fossil wood. However, it has been re-identified by a well-known local expert as the fragment of an Ichthyosaurus rib bone. The specimen is approx 1 3/4" / 4cms long.
