No time to breathe!

Whew, life comes at me fast! A couple of days ago my one and only tooth (wisdom tooth) started bothering me. I'd been told repeatedly by a dentist that it had to come out. Fearing it would get infected, I hastened to the first dentist I called who said 'come right on in and we'll pull it.' Turns out the dentist hadn't said that, but his receptionist told me that. The dentist wasn't too keen on another patient, but turns out he's an implant specialist. I had no idea. So he x-rayed my implants, and just my luck, two were attached by broken screws. So I'm hoping he'll fix them. He can, but he's wanting to retire and not eager. If I had known about him years ago, my life would have been immeasurably better.

I got back to the oasis as soon as possible to do needed chores and enjoy migration. Today was the best migration day so far. While watering, I saw a Virginia's Warbler at the back water drip. I called out to the other birders present, who were at the front viewing area. They were gung-ho to get a Virginia's, so came back for "warbler watch."

I went about my watering, until they called out "Blue-Winged Warbler." By the time I turned off the water and got back there, it was through bathing and back in the brush, preening. I couldn't get focused on it. Got terrible photos, but not my worst ever. LOL

And here is the trail cam clip of that bath. Neither the Virginia's, nor the Blue-winged, ever showed back. The oasis was just a pit stop for them.*

The only other decent photo I got today was of a female Bullock's Oriole. But I got the watering done and will be loaded for bear tomorrow.(Not literally.)

So much other stuff happening too. Too much to enumerate here.
