All the recent rains have not only caused the misery of mosquitoes, but also a sea of weeds. This morning I went down to service feeders. The electricity was off due to a storm in the area last night, not at the oasis. The water feature was becoming hidden by grass and weeds, so I cut what I could before the battery on my weedeater died. By the time the electricity was restored I was too tired to do more.

After weedeater |
I did it a couple of weeks ago, so it won't stay done for long, but, even though everywhere is an oasis right now, and birds aren't needing a drink or bath, it seems like it should be visible to birders, nonetheless.
The seedpods on the rare Dark Star Milkvines are beginning to ripen.

Thank you for all your work and these reports. What brand of battery-powered weedeater do you have? I need to replace my old Core.
