Standing at the top of the hill overlooking Albuquerque, New Mexico was beautiful as the city gave one shot of beauty in the skies before darkness fell. The cloud formations over the city was amazing as lights came on and we headed in for a good nights rest.

Walking back to the car, feeling it… alone in the woods, loving the smell, the damp, the quiet… not too hot – the air is right! The path opens into an adjacent open area and a male House Finch is surveying his domain… pretty bold, given the number of Red-tailed Hawks and Kestrals out today… the breeze is moving his perch but he’s looking at me and telepathically tells me to take his photo… I nod and oblige…
Roldana (thank you, Wilma!!)
This one's probably "Roldana_aschenborniana", according to another post of the same plant (I think)--same garden, anyhow. 😊

Yucatan - Chichen Itza - Maya pyramid
MEX0043.1.BW.F
Chichen Itza was a major focal point in the Northern Maya Lowlands from the Late Classic (c. AD 600–900) through the Terminal Classic (c. AD 800–900) and into the early portion of the Postclassic period (c. AD 900–1200). The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico and of the Puuc and Chenes styles of the Northern Maya lowlands. The presence of central Mexican styles was once thought to have been representative of direct migration or even conquest from central Mexico, but most contemporary interpretations view the presence of these non-Maya styles more as the result of cultural diffusion.
Chichen Itza was one of the largest Maya cities and it was likely to have been one of the mythical great cities, or Tollans, referred to in later Mesoamerican literature. The city may have had the most diverse population in the Maya world, a factor that could have contributed to the variety of architectural styles at the site.
