The insects are back
First bumblebee window rescue of the year. There will be many more. The mosquitoes are back, but they aren't at plague proportions yet. The blackflies are back, with their horrible parasitic bite, like they are drilling into your skin with their head, which is what it feels like. The ticks are back but are either just beginning, or my guineas are shielding me from the full horror show. The bittern is gallunking; the peepers are singing. It is almost time for the screen doors, the window screens, and the secondary line of defense- the mosquito bed tent
Ground bees
Look closely in a hole, and you could see a little bee butt or bee head, and if you waited, you might see another bee come in for a light hovering landing and then slip down the hole, or one come up and push out a grain of dirt.

I may not make a blog post every day, but at least I Insta.
