| The large amount of cliffy, lava rock canyons that are scattered throughout the Snake River Valley (such as these) provide excellent nesting opportunities for Prairie Falcons, Golden Eagles, Red-tailed Hawks, American Kestrels, and Ravens. And indeed, Idaho has the largest concentration of nesting raptors in North America! I always wondered why they put the raptor on our state quarter instead of a big, fat potato... |

I love seeing that sage brush!
