OK, new here. trying to start an Earth thread.
lets see if i did this correctly.
there is water in the reservoir again. it went dry last May when they opened the flow for down stream IRR.
it was DRY. Nada. no aqua. empty. we walked across it, i found a shiny quarter on a dirt pile next
to a small puddle left after the water drained to the west.
i have a doves nest 20ft from a window. i have binocs and watch them often. the young one is flapping his
wings, building muscles to fly soon. he doesnt yet have much tail feather so he sits on the edge of the nest
and watches and cleans, repeat. mom dad come back and he sucks the milk from moms throat...
then she spits out the seeds she took in and baby moves around picking them all up.
i think last year they lost the egg....i dont recall seeing all this activity or seeing them in the nest this long.
it looks like this time will be successful for them.
earth is having a tuff time but small things, in their short supply, are real nice to see.
walking along the reservoir hearing birds ducks frogs..water lapping....is so refreshing and so
pleasant.
not sure what the feelings will be when they open the dam for down stream and that "reservoir"
becomes a big dirt flatland again. sigh.
lake powell is not opening the flow for downstream. they must keep enough water to provide HydroElec
for CO NM. if the water goes any lower the hydro elec is gone.
in 120 years humans have changed the planets weather. not just an area like the Maya did, this time they
altered the entire planets... weather.
