Late Day Cliffside, Caballo Lake State Park, Caballo NM, April 22, 2012
Do I see what I think I see?
Yes I do. That's a Great Horned Owl up there on the cliff across the river, waiting for the sun to set. And to his left is his mate on the nest deep in a hole in the cliff. A fellow camper, Winnie, told me I might find a nesting pair up there. She had seen them up there last year.
Sure wish I could get closer but there's a river in the way.

Privileges
It would be possible, of course, to feel contempt for people entirely oblivious of the power structure within which they had their own security. But what do people in general know about how their privileges relate to their fellow citizens' lack of privileges? Is it possible, even, to live with an exact knowledge of where you yourself stand in the network of human exploitation?
