BUMBLEBEE & SPIDER


The grasses and flowers are so tall this year
that you can barely see me
as I forage
for tender grass shoots.


A quick romp across the sand to catch my companion
a shake off
and ~~


back into the jungle again.


These mini-daisylikes are very few
along my trail
but I sniff them anyway.
Could be edible!
Alas, not the case.


 How ever this is what I wanted to show you!
BUMBLEBEE vs SPIDER
(have a look at the video to see what happens)



such SPEED!


Next time you are in town ,
I'll personally show you around
and
protect you from those nasty spiders.

THIS IS MY WATER WORLD


With spring fully entrenched
and
 the ice-packed winter roads gone
"fully disappearing in the rear view mirror.....thank you so very much",
we decided to go swimming at the lake.


I love water! 
 When you are a DOODLE
both sides of your lineage are water-logged
so  I've been known to flop into a puddle or a swamp.
Yes, the guys do keep an eye on me.
Lighten up, Guys!


I was out sniffing some flowers this morning in the garden
and there they were 
"the water droplets on the cowslips"
I have a keen eye when there is any form of water nearby.


 "Tidal Meanderings" 
perfectly describes the beach this evening 
as we captured the last rays of light 
along this stretch of land.
Any time you want to take a special moment
and be delighted in a world
of creativity, 
travel,
foods, 
beautiful photography 
and
the sheer joy of life
then skip over to Vicki's blog
2 Bags Full < click here
and I promise 
you will only be amazed
at the beauty that she has to offer this world.
Now go on, click that link and visit her!


The soft spring rains smothered 'the sanguinaria ~ blood root' in droplets as well.
(Normally the bloodroot is white 
but creative licence played upon my soul
so it is now pink.)


Neapolitan ice cream cone
that's what it looks like to me.


The sanquinaria petals spread their wings
as the sun broke through the layers of clouds
evaporating the last of the rain droplets.



I'll be dreaming tonight, no doubt water will be featured.
So looking forward to tomorrow
so I can practice my dog paddle and fetch Mr. Orangie.
