This is glorious - you must have a beautiful backyard. I am envious, my backyard is prairie and grasshoppers right now. Got to "check out" the rest or your gallery.
God Bless! #4643989

Very much like your angle and selective focus here, Cheryl. I haven't seen one honey bee this year, not one--just wasps and bumblebees and like that. It's a worry that they seem to be disappearing all across the country. Oh, so sorry, your dealing with shingles (ah, so painful) and chickenpox all at the same time. #4652416

Cheryl Meisel August 15, 2007

Thanks Mitch, and NOPE I don't have many either of the honey bees :(
