A science writer colleague was amused by a comment I made about the recent rains being enough to ensure that my graduate students can collect enough data to complete their theses. When you work with nectar feeders, you think about things like this… Anyway, she wrote a blogpost about our work. You can tell she’s a professional science writer - it’s beautifully written.

Storm clouds in Deep Canyon. Note the Costa's male hummingbird at the top left of the tree, undaunted by the rain.
