Ray's Rainfall Update
Heavens to Mergatroid! On day 157 of DY 1 the new whopping rainfall total is, 22.05" + 0.30" = 22.35". Yep. The free water enthusiasts in these parts, prosper.
Yesterday, a Turk's Cap blossom or two appeared. Turk cap's blossoms herald the upcoming hummingbird post-fornication season at the CB. Anon, our seasonal resident female black-chinned hummingbird should reappear, if past performances are any indication.
Meantime, out in the southwest pasture abutting the CB perimeter and bar ditch that some might be tempted to reference as a speargrass-chigger community, Brazoria scutelleroides appears to be increasing in abundance. Like Bifora, this species appears to have adapted itself to the CB, within the rather weedy speargrass-chigger community SW pasture.
This picture is of the most westerly occurring Brazoria scutelleroides at the CB. Besides the speargrass and the chiggers, it mixes with several noxious introduced weeds moving eastward from the bar ditch.
