A little bit of nature

Aaaah, it has been so amazing here lately. I almost don't want to say it because I'll jinx it! We have had NO rain for ages! Why that's so great is...less bugs (always a good thing especially those annoying may flies that get stuck in your eyes) and no humidity. Lovely. Today I was out just snapping pics of the kids being silly in the yard when I decided to take some of our irises which are on the way out due to all the hot weather. While I was snapping the irises a lone bumble came along. It was so cool. He/she actually goes right inside to get what he's going for, completely dissapears that goes to another flower. It was hard to capture him since he kept dissapearing but here he is! I cropped a little closer so you can see him, furry legs and all!

A little bit later when the kids were supposed to be in bed we were sitting in our adirondack chairs watching our cat Belle, be a cat. She was staring at a tree so intently the way that cats do. A robin then flew down and landed on the ground...dummy! Luckily the cat did not get him but started climbing the tree. We managed to scare her down and low and behold, look what we found! Now we're just going to have to figure out a way to keep her out of there. I am really looking forward to following these little eggs. I will be so totally devistated if our cat gets at them.

This next one is a bit goofy and just for fun. Photoshop is so fun sometimes!
