Big rain in Alpine

Yesterday, when the oasis got nearly half an inch of rain, our place in Alpine got only a quarter of an inch. But today it made up for it. Got one and a quarter inches, while nothing at the oasis. Nothing forecast for the next ten days either. As soon as the new pump arrives tomorrow I'm heading to the oasis.

After the rain there quit last evening Mac took a few photos. Here are a couple of them.



And the Bell's Vireos today...


Back in Alpine it seems the huge rain storm caused critters to seek refuge in the house. Here's a Bulia deducta moth and Mediterranean Gecko. (IDs thanks to Tripp Davenport.)
