I remember the house and senora well...over the years I would drop off food regularly for her cats and dogs....Lobo, one of my favorite doggies lived there. Hope the cats don't get the Chachalaca. Lovely birdie.

Our house was one of the very first (2005) built on the top of western edge/ridge in what some call "Gringo Gulch". Back then there was no road just an overgrown walking path. The whole area was natural growth and large numbers of Chachalacas
roosted and fed there. We liked them so much that we named our house, "Casa Chachalaca". They still travel up and down from the ridge and roost in our trees, but in fewer numbers. Sometimes we put out grain for them and the doves.
