Little bit of nature

Here's some of the great birds that started coming to our backyard to get a bit of the birdseed we put out there.

One Sunday morning on our walk we spotted this big old guy. I rhinoceros beetle. He was just about dead when we picked him up, so he only lasted a day. It was fun finding out some some facts about it.

Joey loved coming outside with me in the mornings to watch the bees getting nectar and pollen fromt he flowers. It really is an amazing thing to sit back and just watch mother nature in action. Those bees are truly amazing!

that's great that you get to observe the bees up close like that...they look like a slightly different type of bee than we see on our flowers. Glad you are helping your boys to enjoy the beauties of nature!!
