Rhododendron

If you look really close you will see a Bee hovering to the right and almost nestled in the stamen and pistals of one picture, then the other picture the bee is almost dead center above the flower. These plants are on the other side of Sarah’s Pond and in close proximity of the two new beech trees. Rhododendron (from the Greek: rhodos, "rose", and dendron, "tree") is a genus of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae.

What comes to your mind?

When you look at this picture what do you see?

My mind says Beilien ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Of course it is STILL not official.......................................... But this picture says it all the BEE is there! The deeper question is WHERE is THERE? OK sick humor, well I am still sick, and the fever has broken and life goes on Bee and lines etc. Whoo Hoo life is a GAS! "We cannot confirm the national media reports regarding Coach Beilien," Director of Athletics Ed Pastilong said in a prepared statement.

Bee Nice

- Nice Is Good

It is over…the nest is dripping

...with the proper spray, the trellis dissembled…what we thought was a hornets nest was not. Yellow Jackets The term "hornet" is often used to refer to many of the wasps that build large papery nests. The most notable paper wasp is the baldfaced hornet, Dolichovespula maculata, and several species of yellow jackets (Vespula sp.), which are really wasps. In actuality the only true hornet found in the United States is the European hornet,Vespa crabro L. Yellow jackets are house fly-sized wasps with distinct yellow and black markings and a few hairs. They construct a similar type of paper nest; however, it will be tan in color, much smaller in size compared to the hornet nest, and is usually found in an underground cavity. Common locations for nests are in lawns, particularly in sandy exposed areas, as well as at the base of trees or shrubs. Occasionally, yellow jackets will nest in attics or walls voids of houses or storage buildings. Some good information here!

Little White FUZZY Butts

Early this a.m. my sweetie asked ‘how I felt.’ This of course was in reference to the yard work I pulled off yesterday. Of course I was early in my waking up mode and as I need time to awake just answered “With my Fingers”… Bless his heart he spared my aching back and loaded the trailer with the rest of the cuttings from yesterday venture. I chuckled silently to my self, as I recalled my Daddy saying this to my Mom. Then I started thinking about words…not that that is anything new. Like fuzzy butts, and raccoonie bahoonies which all leads to the topic de jour. Those topics for yet another story. Little White FUZZY Butts! Year ago when I was an adult leader in a local Cub Scout Day camp I first learned about what was called “Snow Fleas”, which are actually not what they actually are. Granted there are Snow fleas, but this time of year the bugs I saw last evening are WHITEFLIES! I caught several so I would make the correct identification. Idle time you say? Not really I was pausing after drenching a Hornets nest…not anxious to be involved in a STING Operation. The nest appears to be the size of a football. It is behind a trellis that I want to move. Close inspection is sketchy at this point. So today purchase more Hornet spray…and in the interim catch a little white Fuzzy Butts!
