Busy

Why is it that work always expands to fill the time available? 

Sometimes the world is like a hive.  These are the hives that live in my field.   

I love to go out and check on their progress each day.

These bees are Russian bees.  Clearly they are used to having a 

short summer in which to get their work done.

These bees are, guess what?  Italian.  I guess they'll get around to it.  

Like the bees, I've done my work. 

 

Unlike the bees, now I get to go play!! 

Summer Snowfall?

This isn't snow in June; it's cottonwood seeds.  This year seemed to be the biggest cottonwood seed drop in memory.

Regenwald - Rain Forest

Very heavy rain last night. Waking up with the window open, high up in the canopy, felt like being in a rain forest during rainy season. The frogs are happy. The newly planted willow trees are delighted. Missed a picture of the great blue heron in the middle of the flooded field. What an optimist!
