Amongst the Wisteria Blossoms

Next three days, it will be hot like summer.  In the backyard, the wisteria is in full bloom, attracting many living things.

Honey Bee:  "I like the sweet taste."



Purple Finch, female:  "I just like to hang around for a visit."



Anna's Hummingbird:  "Nothing better than fresh sweet juice!"

Quick Growing Up

It's been hot.  I noticed even honey bees often come over to the bird bath for a quick drink.  


                                          Left one:    "It's your turn, honey."
                                          Right one:  "On a hot day like this, I have 
                                                           to drink a lot to avoid dehydration."

I saw a young Goldfinch together with her mom, but she does not feed the young any longer


               Mom:  "I am not mean, but want to be just right.  
                        Any young one has to grow up quickly in the nature."
  Infant;  "OK.  I'll do just as you told me."



"See, I can be independent."
