The Asters & the Bumble Bee

 Sitting on the porch for a while when I arrive home is what I like to do, no matter what the weather is like. I put the aster plant (i thought was a mum) on the chair beside me. I hear a buzzing going on. This is what I saw.

  1. Bumble bees are incredible creatures because they shouldn't be able to fly and yet they do.

      They are also fairly friendly and not camera shy.

      The asters were a surprise. I thought they were a type of mum until the clerk told me they are asters.

  3. Asters give that wonderful burst of color when everything else is going brown!

      Asters are a treat to see in the wild. There are burst of purple along the side of the road.
