Determination won the day


I came to the oasis midday with a pre-made new arm for the top of the seed feeder. Everything went wrong that could. At one point the feeder full of seed crashed to the ground and landed on my hip.


 But too much to explain. Suffice it to say, I finally got the feeder to suit me.


I didn't have time to watch birds, but did see a rare (for the Big Bend) White-throated Sparrow. Also a couple of Lucifer Hummingbirds. Hoping the sparrow is still around tomorrow so I can get a photo. But I have to water tomorrow, and have to go to town in the afternoon, so it's not going to be easy.

Things are looking good considering the oasis got less than 9" of rain so far this year.
