Very nice! Those are beautiful flowers - and a great shape for a bee to wander in.


Thanks for stopping by my WW post! You're right, bananas have totally "recyclable" packaging - but I won't be throwing that in my recycle bin. :)

You know, I'm a city girl... not really into nature. But when I see an image like this one - the beauty - it's just breathtaking. Thank you.

That's adorable! We saw a large bee a couple of days ago and it's butt was so bright it looked kinda orange/red. I couldn't catch the fellow though.

I think you got a perfect shot there. Funnily enough I was watching a bee doing something similar today and when I went to my bag for the camera I found I had forgotten it!

It's nice to see a bee at work, since there have been drastic shortages of them the past couple of years. Every time I see a patch of flowers I look hopefully for bees.

Excellent shot! Gotta love the Canon Rebel. I still use my Rebel 2000 film SLR.

I love the clarify of your photo. Especially with something as busy as a bee. :D

Now that's what I call a close-up shot! I wouldn't want to get too close to that bee!

Beautiful photo. Awesome close up of the bumble bee. I am a little partial to bees with my job in the honey plant and all.

Ice Can Look Nice

Image
When there is an inversion and the fog rolls into a shivery valley it is both dangerous and breathtaking. Walking on the gravelly path seems stable, but even the small twigs that stick up around the edges grab onto the moisture and create little artistic ice crystals. a male house finch adds a spot of color! After a few days of this wintery chill,  a warm Chinook wind blew in.  It was probably pushed ahead of what the weatherman called an "atmospheric river" which drenched the west siders way beyond seasonal norms. It is forecast that  Christmas will be warm and no white stuff falling.  At least not here. **** May there be moments of peace and hope in your hearts as you celebrate this holiday. Hug each other.  Feed the birds ****

Fun Monday - Childhood Memories

Image
Our Fun Monday Host this week is Molly, Return of the White Robin . She requested that we share a fond memory of childhood and some pictures. There are very few pictures of my childhood. There are, however, many memories. Little snippets of sounds and smells raced through my mind today as I tried to find a trail to follow. I jotted down many that I hoped would provide me with an idea for today's assignment. Then, I realized that these little bits and pieces are part of the jig saw puzzle of me -- of who I am. You don't have to put them together, but I think you'll see the picture. Childhood Memories The chorus of frogs from the pond in the lower pasture that lulled us to sleep on warm summer nights. Catching polliwogs in the creek that disappeared several pastures over into a foliage camouflaged ravine. The distinct sweet smell of new born kittens inside a barrel in the fruit house The hunt for the elusive Tiger Lily in the open fields, and the pungent s...

Fun Monday

Quirky Lisa (Lisa's Chaos) is today's Hostess with the mostess quirks. She used the following instructions to enlighten us about today's topic: A quirk is defined as a peculiarity of action, behavior, or personality; mannerism. We are all unique individuals, having quirks that help make us who we are. I would like to know what your quirks are. Confess to one, confess to ten, you decide. Just come back Monday ready to spill the beans, the rest of the world may look at you like you are from Mars, but you‘re among friends here. We won’t laugh, in fact that eccentricity just may endear you to us more. Well ...I'm being as quirky as Swampwitch today. I'm sorta following the rules, and sorta not. Instead of hearing about my boring quirkiness, you are being treated to an old story about a quirky cat. * * * * Daggett was a cat with very odd behavior. I like to think she channeled my monthly mood swings. But, her excuse may be that her head was slightly injured in a c...
