The bee in the first shot went about knocking the petals off many a flower as he bopped around the wildflower buffet at Three Rivers last weekend. In his own small way, he was making a huge mess. The garden-variety fly on the daisy was doing his thing without any bother on the same day. (The album dates do not correspond to the dates I took the pictures. Just my excellent and unique filing skills skewing things around her just a bit.)
Down South, many folks assume summer in Connecticut must be a cool and refreshing thing. The truth is, though, that the humidity that makes our humid subtropical climate a four-season adventure is every bit as intense as anything down there. Ever since that summer 14 years ago when I was great (gigantic) with child, no amount of heat bothers me. I'm grateful for that season for many reasons, including for conditioning me so that I could, as the Boss says, "smell the deep green of summer" and enjoy it completely.

ReplyDeleteI strive to not let the heat bother me. The alternative is staying inside, and that is no fun.
ReplyDeleteLovely captures. I too enjoy summer.
ReplyDeleteLovely images - and I wish we would have a summer, of any kind, cool and refreshing or hot and humid, as long as it is sunny.;) So far we have had very little sun here, sigh.
