The Birthing Center

About a month ago we noticed the Boxelder Bugs had come out of overwintering.  We suspect they found a niche somewhere in the garage.  As soon as they were out, they started mating and whenever we saw them, they were always "hooked up".  Today PD found the maternity ward.  My blip is just a small representation.  There were thousands of them in a 3 foot area along the bottom 2 x 4 of the back fence.  They are harmless bugs and as long as I don't find any in the house, they're welcome to the fence.  The yard is big and the fence is far away from the house, so I think we're safe.  Many thanks to jensphotos for hosting Tiny Tuesdays this month!

I'm so far behind on Blip, and I still haven't gone through my vacation images. I'm past trying to catch up, so I'm just going to start fresh today and visit everyone, sprinkling stars along the way.  I really appreciate all your visits and stars and hearts!

I am grateful that I got to the eye doctor on time today.  I didn't really allow enough time between the pool and the appointment, but I made it with 2 minutes to spare. :-)

I just posted yesterday's gymnastic squirrel if you want to take a look.
