Twilight at the Oasis in Nevada

Aug. 19, 2006
Categorized in: What Grows in Nevada

                                                 
If you look close in front of the Nectarine tree you will see a tiny bunny.  All summer she would come and eat the fruit, and then it was gone.  For the last few weeks we have put out fruit and she has come to look for us in the evening. We keep putting the fruit just a little closer every evening and someday maybe someday she will let us pet her???  I think the geraniums look nice too.


The is a bird called a  Great-Tailed Grackle.  I guess they are really considered trash birds but they are so funny to watch.  The male of the species is a polygamous and very stuck up.  When there are two males in the same area, they strut around with their beaks up in the air.  We feed them bread and they come and dip the pieces in the water fountain.  The babies are the funniest, they squawk and squawk until their mother stuffs something in their mouth.  She is trying to teach them how to get their own bread and dip it. 


This is a baby male, even as a baby he is bigger than his mom.  He is smart though, at least he learned how to dip his bread, not all of them are this brilliant.

My mom and I live on the golf course in Sun City Summerlin.  We have a beautiful view of the mountains.  Twilight is my favorite time of the day.  All of the harshness of the day melts away and a softness lays over the golf course.  Then we have beautiful sunsets that have after glow all across the valley.  AAAAWWWW twilight in the desert. 

 

Update on Keil Ranch

Jun. 9, 2006

Just a quick update for Keil ranch....seems not only is North Las Vegas selling off the land that was suppose to be in trust, but now they are dumping things out there.  So much for historical value.
