Busy day

My day was supposed to start at 6 AM, but for some reason, in my sleepy state, I got up at 5 AM, thinking it was time. Kelly Bryan banded hummingbirds today at the same time National Public Radio interviewed him, then, when that was all finished, they interviewed me.

We have a good number of juvenile Lucifer Hummingbirds this month, which means breeding success in the area. We love learning that.


Headed to Alpine after everyone left, I watched showers here and there along the way. Not unusual this time of year. Any day now I'll get my tanks topped off. Meanwhile, I'm lavishing water on things.

That photo of NPR out there in the vast wide open spaces with Kelly is absolutely priceless! Hoping to see you at the Fort Davis Hummingbird Festival next month!

I just got field trip requests so apparently the festival is going to happen. See you there or at the oasis if you come on a field trip there.
