Lovely lady Kestrel, at rest before the rain came.
Soon after this visit, clouds from the east and southeast were over the entire basin, and later, more rain.
This summer, it finally seems safe to say that we ARE getting monsoon rains. We’re up to about 1.20 inches of rain total during the last week and a half-ish. The moisture that hit the ground mostly is soaking in – and gathering in arroyos that run to creeks that run to rivers – but the moisture is huge for the vegetation, and we’re still hopeful that some ponds might fill!
