Chukar are native to southern Eurasia and were introduced to the US from Pakistan as a game bird. Despite being hunted, they are quite successful and no doubt benefit from the artificial ponds at the spring. (A note to California chukar hunters...)
The dataloggers I replaced really are neat little devices. They record temperature and light intensity at set intervals. Even at a 15 minute interval, they have enough battery life and storage for three months!

I love the little birdies!!! I saw damselflies like that in Costa Rica and they had such vibrant colors- but they startled me because they were hooked together! There was always a blue one with a really really bright red one underneath- like 100s of them on the rocks along the river. I had forgotten all about them until I saw this picture!!!
