I left Granite Gap this morning. Last night I spent a few hours photographing Mars since the “seeing” was forecast to be good and now Olympus Mons is on the right side of the planet. I figured I better try it because the weather is going to change, the jet stream will dip far south and that means the “seeing” will be pretty bad for a while. The results were OK but I hope for better later this month. On my way to Ajo I stopped at the Ina Street bridge over the Santa Cruz River to see if I could find the Northern Jacana. It only took about 10 minutes to do that and take some photos. I got into the campground at Ajo around 4 PM. It was 97 F. but this is the supposed to be the last day of hot weather. I hope so.
As always, right click on an image and open in a new tab to see it displayed at a larger size.

I SEE GOT THE JACANA ANYWAY. GREAT!
Awesome that you got the Jacana!
I showed David the Ghost nebula, he thinks it looks pretty creepy. It is aptly named!
