>>Big congrats again Toby! Any abnormalities in this clutch? They look perfect to me. How close is that mtn. range to the Santa Rita's?

Thanks Matt!
No abnormalities in these three babies - all are perfect!
I am not sure offhand how close / distant those mountain ranges are, but they are separated from each other by enough distance that the populations of intermedia in both do not share gene flow, or at least not very much - and I consider them definitely seperate locales. Here is a map I found which shows the Santa Ritas and Pajaritos. http://www.csupomona.edu/~djmoriarty/az/az_sky_islands.htm ----- -Toby Brock
