Hanging on and Sucking it in

I went out to photograph a hummingbird, but he didn't cooperate with me,  but this little bee was posing nicely on the Salvia plant Black & Blue! I liked how he was holding on to the center of the flower as he collected pollen. It looks like he has already stored a great deal in his visible storage bag.

Today was a surprisingly beautiful sunny day. I spent most of the day in the yard getting fall clean up done and removing compose from one of my of my bins. There were so many worms still in the soil that it took me an hour to remove them so they can work on the next bin of kitchen scrapes and leaves. Yes, I actually touched them.....balls of them...and moved them Remember I grew up on a farm digging my own worms for fishing. My dirty hands drives my husband crazy! 

Thanks for visiting and for your kind comments. See you tomorrow.
