Hummingbird migration in progress

Lots of hummers. I didn't get very inspired for photos because it sprinkled all day long and without sun my photos aren't that good. Here are a couple of migrating hummers.

Rufous

Calliope
A couple of shorebirds showed up. Here's a juvenile Great Blue Heron.



























The high temperature here today was 65°. I had a little water to pump into a tank today from yesterday's rain. Still need to get the tanks full before the end of rainy season though. But this cool and well-watered ground is wonderful. Maybe the oasis will finally start getting back to its pre-drought lushness.
