Lordy! I just had to get some wasp spray for a nest in my outhouse. Believe me, you don't want them in THERE!
That's a pretty small swarm. Had they gotten inside the wall? If so, they had access to the power meter. Not good at all!! For you or them.
The were in the stub out for the meter. There were about 15,000 - 20,000 bees on the inside.........I didn't want to violate the rules twice by posting a second picture.
How long did it take you, to count that many bee's?:detective:Quote:

Obviously Crash's picture is not of an ocean. But, even the water in the picture is all good for food. The color of the water has more to do with sediment than any thing else.
I've heard that too Odd.
That shot was from a customer's back yard yesterday. The water closest to me is a swimming pool.:whistling: The larger body of water is the St. Johns River.
I picked up this fountain at the thrift store for $4. Bought a solar water pump on Amazon ($15) and $1 in tubing from Ace... and now we have... endless feline entertainment.

Oh my cat would LOVE that. Good job.
The rabbits are making a comeback in our area this year. Have not seen many the last few years.

To answer your question (sorry I missed it) ...... not true at all. I've been scuba diving in the clear, clean waters of Hawaii, Guam, Aruba, Bahamas, and many other places that have clean clear water and are teeming with life. Some of the many springs here in Florida have crystal clear water with lots and lots of life.Quote:

Yeah, but it's 60. I would love to see 60 degree temps right about now.
Nice harvest.

Someone gave me some pretty rotten prickly pears. So I'm gonna see if I can make a sort of wild cider out of them.

The passionflower didn't produce any fruit, but at least I can harvest the leaves for some nighty-night tea. ;)

That's a shot worth of a National Geographic.
We've been getting our typical afternoon thunder storms. Yesterday's was spectacular. I had to try out the camera in my new phone..........now to figure out the rest of the phone.
That is an amazing picture. What's next in your vitae? CrashPhotos?
This was taken at 9:00 this morning. A few storms were in the area left over from last night.

My water kefir grains (AKA tibicos) arrived. :D
Gonna try and make some fizzy, fermented health tonics.
You ain't kiddin' me, Crash. I know that's the smoke cloud over Hunter's cabin. He's been playin' with fire again. Mrs. Hunter is gonna be so ticked.
Last week, the yard guys managed to pull up the yerba mansa (and some other plants) from the front bed. :no:
I put the bare root in the water fountain, and seems to have made a full recovery in there.

I've never had prickly pears... what are they like?
