Bee Yourself

Just BEE yourself; you're the only YOU.


And YOU, my friends, bring joy to my heart every day.

Can you believe this little guy landed on our patio chair and hung around long enough for us to get several great photos of him?  Some busy bee...he must have been on break!

Thank you dear Sugar the Golden Retriever and Dachshund Nola for hosting Black and White Sunday.

Reminder:  Tomorrow the Bad Poetry Day Contest begins!  The Contest blog hop will be open all week, through Friday, so don't forget to write your horrible poem and join in the fun!

  30. Oh yes, I almost furgot about the bad poetry contest. Shiver, Chico and I will have to work on ours and get it up one day this week.

    I am allergic to bee stings, so I wouldn't have stayed around long enough to take even one picture of that bee, let alone several! It's a great pic though!

    ReplyDelete
  31. We probably wouldn't have stayed around too long...mama usually RUNS the other direction as she has a bad reaction to bee stings!!

  32. Hooray for bees! I'm so worried about them; it lifts my heart every time I see one.

  35. It is a neat photo. I don't think he would be Freighter's friend because he got stung by one on his foot this evening. He was not a happy puppy. :)
