#rain #Arizona The little wash behind our house at the bottom of a small hill is flowing very nicely. Sound up to hear all the happy birds. 🐦 This will flow into the Camino de Oeste wash about a quarter mile from here then that wash flows into the Santa Cruz River about a quarter mile away.

#rain #Arizona Lots of clouds and a gentle rain. This is looking west toward the Tucson Mountains but they're all socked in with clouds. 🌧️😁 I hope this continues all day long. Slow rains give everything a chance to soak in and not turn into flash floods.

#cat #bobcat Went out now in the early evening to do my daily check on our western screech owl in his box and there was a new visitor ON his box. 😀This is a young guy, probably under a year and born in the spring here in the neighborhood. We do love our bobcats!

#cats I spent about an hour grooming our newest little resident Puff. ♥️😽 She had mats and a dirty bottom so there was a lot of cleaning, combing and a sani trim. She was a little champ and after it started to groom herself which is a very good sign. Heartsthatpurr.org She sees the vet tomorrow.🐾💕1/2

#rain #WaterHarvesting A nice rainstorm and went to check our pop-up drain. It's part of our water harvesting system that comes from the gutters, goes underground and comes up at the pop-up and goes into swales and rain basins with pomegranates and other bushes in it. Free water, the best kind!

#cats @alonewon.bsky.social To cheer your day here's a new resident, Zoe & she's a real sweetie. She came with her sister Chloe who is a black almost tuxie with a little white chest. They came from a bad situation & they're very happy here now. Of course the standard shot of lapcat Mr. Bittles
An all black female cat with green eyes sits on beige carpeted stairs next to a couch. Her name is Zoe and we think she's about 16. Her person got Alzheimer's and she and her sister were left to fend for themselves outside. A neighbor called us and we took them in. She's very friendly and a little darling. she loves to be brushed which I do when Mr. Bittles lets me.Mr. Bittles a brown and white snowshoe Siamese on a lady's lap and not allowing her to groom the other cats until he has his fill.

#chefs @montisboeher.bsky.social @goodport.bsky.social @chefericfeltman.bsky.social Favorite chefs: I think I scored a key buy-$40-off Craigslist- a brand new Staub griddle that's perfect for tortillas, quesadillas & other stuff. My question, do I have to season this? Used to old Lodge skillets!
A new blue enamel Staub flat griddle with a flour tortilla breakfast quesadilla cooking on it on top of a gas stove.A blue enamel Staub flat griddle on a gas stove grilling a breakfast quesadilla. The tortilla is folded in half and is browned.The box the new Staub blue enamel flat griddle came in. It had never been used! Thinking this might be one of my best Craigslist finds. It's smaller than the big comal that I've been using to do burritos and quesadillas and it's easier to move too. The surface is a very smooth black which is different from the rougher Lodge iron skillets I use that were my mom's. Need to bone up on the care of this ASAP.

#WhiskersWednesday #cats The ever handsome Mr. Bittles at Kitty Ranch AKA Hearts that Purr Feline Guardian program. www.heartsthatpurr.org
A snowshoe Siamese with a pink nose, white face and chest and darker brown ears and brown around his blue eyes sits on a woman's lap at his retirement home. Mr. Bittles is 15 and came to us when his person went into hospice. A sweet 15-year-old neighbor boy took care of him but it got to be too much and so he came to us. He has stolen my heart.
