This interesting critter is a Badger and he's a resident of the Living Desert Wildlife and Botanical Park in Palm Desert, CA.
A brief history of the badger. (You can click on the photo to enlarge the image.)
He had a beautiful fur coat.
I took this picture of a warthog while we were visiting the Living Desert in Palm Desert a few months ago. (You can click on the photo to view a larger image.)
Hmmm... Is this a face only a mother could love?

When we visited the Living Desert Wildlife & Botanical Park last month, we saw a number of goats in a petting zoo area. This guy was my favorite. He's a Nubian goat and he was nice enough to pose for several pictures. 
I think he was as curious about me as I was about him.
He actually looks like he's grinning in this photo. If you enlarge the picture you can see his teeth!
I could have spent the entire afternoon taking pictures of this guy. I loved his long ears and goofy facial expressions.

I celebrated my birthday last Sunday with a visit to the Living Desert Wildlife and Botanical Park in Palm Desert - it's about a 2 hour drive from where we live. Even though I was born and raised in So. California, I never knew this place existed! I had a wonderful time exploring the "Butterflies Alive" exhibit. These two Painted Lady butterflies were nice enough to pose for me. (You can click on the photos to view a larger image.)
I've never had any luck taking pictures of hummingbirds (they were always blurry) so you can imagine how happy I was with this photo. This little Anna's Hummingbird perched on the feeder just long enough for me to take her picture.
