a flower and a bee

yesterday I went to the community garden area to put some stuff in the compost bin.  When I got there I was surprised to see a flower sticking out of a bin with a bee busy working away.  It was rather nice out but the cooler temps and rain are supposed to return for the weekend.

    How nice to see the flower and bee. Such a stark contrast to the surroundings. We had snow flurries yesterday and very cold wind.

    That's nice Bill. You have one more flower in bloom than what we have here.

    Love the tenacity of nature. The blossom should give us all motivation for determination! Having problems with internet here at my inn in México. Hope you can find my Mazatlan Daily Photo blog: http://kate-mazatlanmexico.blogspot.mx

    With few exceptions, life tries so hard to keep on going. This is just a reminder....

    Hey, Bill, congratulations! You wrote a compost about to bee or not to bee! What a guy! Seriously, glad you got some good weather, even if it was a bit temporary. It got colder and more windy here, too. Yuck!

    Bees will take nectar wherever they can find it! Pretty daffodil.
