| June 2013: not shy about raining. We may break 10" yet! |
All this rain and green means there's lots of bug activity out there. Here are some of of Medlock's busy bees.
 |
| Tomato fairy godmother: this tiny bee is loaded with white pollen from working the tomato blooms. |
 |
| Same tiny species as above (?), working the bee balm. |
 |
| Here's a bumble bee, executing a typically graceful face-plant on a bee balm blossom. Notice the size of this bee to the flower's stamens: it gives a good perspective on how small the bee in the previous photo is. |
 |
| With so many bees around, who shows up if not the dread tiger bee fly? It's a fly that feeds on bees. Boo, hiss. The wings have clear spots that give them a tattered appearance. |
