Oasis greening up

Everything is blooming and greening up nicely. The male Lucifer Hummingbirds are  really revved up to mate with the females. But the females are busy making nests and won't have anything to do with them.

Meanwhile, the impatient males are displaying to one another. It'll all work out, though, in the scheme of things.






































I've struggled for years trying to raise a Woolly Butterfly bush (Buddleia marrubifolia). This one I've managed to keep alive so far. Here is my first butterfly photo on it, a Common Streaky-Skipper.
