Hiking up Palm Canyon to the Palm Oasis we spot a flock of a dozen or more desert longhorn sheep and their newly born lambs known locally as Borrego! The Anza-Borrego state park takes its name from the 18th century Spanish explorer Juan Bautista de Anza and Borrego is the Spanish for bighorn sheep. I'm sure the young lambs must taste good on a spit however they are an endangered species and protected!
