It has rained over the past two days. I checked the gauge this evening and it read 2 inches.
The Bonamia is beginning to bloom. The vines are plentiful across the landscape.
Polanisia tennufolia is in bloom, too.
This evening a Great Horned Owl flew across the landscape as I was setting up for night insect work. The sky tonight was lovely. It was that bright early evening blue, perhaps clarified by the rain, which gets rid of haze.
The bug survey was uneventful. Ant lions, a few beetles, moths, leafhoppers and flies, but nothing I was hoping for.
