Plants and Pollinators
This morning was another time or three of wandering our CRP where wildflowers and grasses are finally growing after the drought threatened any success. The wildflowers I enjoyed today were common and each species has been featured recently. Still, they were pretty so I photographed them.
Along with the plants there were many pollinators busy at the blossoms. Most did not remain in position long enough for pictures, but a few did.
For those wondering… the biting bugs were atrocious. My tool to combat them was a Thermacell tucked into my arm immobilizer. The process was not 100% effective, but better than no defenses.
