Hard at work

At the crack of dawn we got to work, and worked until lunch time. Thereafter it was too hot to work. Made a good start, I'd say one third of the project. If our bodies will just hold out for the rest. Here is Jane cleaning the surface. It's impossible to work on a steep concrete surface that has dirt on it. Quick way to end up in the mud.


 There's less than a foot of water in the tank right now.




Late in the afternoon we sat and watched this flycatcher. I think it's a Willow, though there were several other empidinax species around and it does getting confusing.


And I saw a female Townsend's Warbler looking mighty fit that was probably the same individual I saw on May 29th (see post for that day) near exhaustion. This was the only shot I got of it today. She was very active, unlike the other day when I could take as many closeups as I wanted to.
