I noticed a female Lucifer perched on the same perch for a long time, probably more than an hour. And it made weird jerky movements. Otherwise it seemed healthy and normal. Maybe brain damage from an impact to a vehicle or window? I'm unable to upload the video here, but hopefully this link will work.

Other than that, while I was sitting at the back drip, trying to get a better photo of a Hooded Warbler that had been there earlier, I heard what sounded like birds mobbing something. Upon investigation, I located a Western Coachwhip snake about 7 feet high in a tree. That was definitely the cause of the uproar.

I finally did get a better photo of the female Hooded Warbler.

In spite of the 108° high temperature today, I got the watering half done. Will finish in the cool of the morning tomorrow, then back to town to catch up there.
