Back at the oasis

Spent most of the day dragging hoses around trying to get things watered, but got distracted by dragonflies and stuff so didn't finish. A slow process without the pressure pump.

Here's a Black Witch Moth (Ascalapha odorata) that I flushed while watering. It was so big I thought it might be a bat.

And the first Great Pondhawk for the year.

This American Kestrel was so brown in the back that I wasn't sure what it was, but there's nothing else it could be.
