Blacksmith Fork Canyon...

Blacksmith Fork Canyon ... is just a few minutes from our house, and yet it's one of our favorite wildlife watching venues.  We make the roughly 35 mile drive (it's a long canyon!) up and back two or three times every week.  Yesterday we did so again, late in the afternoon, and were treated to three great viewings of bald eagles (twice the same adult, perched about 100 yards from the road), and a long viewing of a small herd of deer (8 does and yearlings) browsing about 30 yards from the car.  One of the things we love about the Model X is that it's so quiet that animals aren't leery of it.  We parked there, car on, for ten minutes or so.  The deer looked up at us at first, then decided we weren't a threat and went on munching...
