It's good to see a bee! They are hurting so bad right now. I read an article about the fact that they are carrying pesticides to their hives. It's killing them off. :( If it continues a lot will be hurting. They make flowers thrive and almond crops need them!
You are a nut, Renae ♥ I just joined you on Instagram today. Sorry for not doing it sooner. My google account was hacked and I am trying to piece everything back together that I lost.
Hari OM Hi Theresa - this is a fantastic shot - macro mode? I on the other hand adore beetles and bugs and things that crawl. That's Wild YAM for ya! xxx
I have a hint for your irises that aren't blooming. You may need to dig them up this fall and make sure the rhizomes are healthy and on top of the soil. If they get covered with leaves or mulch, they tend to rot and stop producing. I have to do that this fall to some of mine.
Damn woman, either you have an awesome zoom on your camera or you're much braver than I am :)
ReplyDeleteI agree! Hope it was a zoom. They may only sting when threatened but they HURT.
