Yeah, the worst part is that I tried to add someone to my blogroll, and Blooger changed my entire front page, causing me to lose my precious blogroll for a sec. Luckily, I was able to restore things.; September 20, 2012 at 3:03 PM

Mix well.

Alexia said...: Lovely shots!

What is the plant the bees are enjoying, thunder?; September 21, 2012 at 1:23 AM
ifthethunderdontgetya™³²®© said...: M.B., the bees usually give me no trouble. However, when I was going by to take a picture of their hive the other day, they WERE swarming all over the place, and there was some wind, too. I stayed away because if one happens to sting you, she release pheromones that alert the rest of the hive to THE DANGER.

Alexia, it is in Frank Fetch Park, so it might be something non-native. (AKA, I'm not sure ;)
