T - Tucson just completed Sept with no rainfall. It should have been a decent month for us during monsoon time. I think we are 5 inches below a low normal.
T - actually we really don't. This is a "man made" lake (really a shallow pond) on the grounds of the historic Canoa Ranch. There used to be a pond here, but it dried up. During the ongoing restoration, they dug a well, and are currently pumping ground water into this pond. It is only an acre or so in size. But as soon as the water appeared last year, the birds did as well.
