the hummers are back

Great hear­ing and see­ing them buzz around,
fight­ing with each other,
fill­ing up on nectar.

Im­ma­ture Ruby-throat­ed Hummingbird. 

On Bee Balm (Monar­da).

                                                  

Great Egret at Bak­er Wet­lands, Lawrence, Kansas.

                                                  

Kansas Sun­flower fields.

Grin­ter Farms, also in Lawrence.

As Sun­flow­ers get old­er, their he­liotrop­ic be­hav­ior di­min­ish­es and they face east (sun­rise) more, per­haps to warm up in the morn­ing and at­tract insects.

Gold­en­rod Sol­dier Bee­tles on a flower.

                                                  

And grow Wild­flow­ers! Helps the bees and every­one. Great tips in this ar­ti­cle, in­clud­ing when to plant seeds (dif­fer­ent than cul­ti­vat­ed flowers).

                                                  

Thun­der and rain … cof­fee and a good book … think I’ll stay in bed this morn­ing and read.

So old style the book is even from the library.
