Back to a few summer flowers and their friends, and ours. My photos are when I visited Meadowlark Gardens a while back. The bees were enjoying the Zinnia...
as was the Monarch enjoying this Purpletop vervain...
and lastly the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail on Pickerelweed. The bees were enjoying them also, but it is hard to see the one in the photo.
"We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty."
I hope you are all having a great week so far, and I thank you for stopping by.
"Maya Angelou (4/4/28 - 5/28/14) was born Marguerite Annie Johnson. She was an American memoirist, poet and civil rights activist. She published seven autobiographies, three books of essays, several books of poetry and is credited with a list of plays, movies and television shows spanning over 50 years. She received dozens of awards and more than 50 honorary degrees. Ms. Angelou's series of seven autobiographies focus on her childhood and early adult experience. The first, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (1969), tells of her life up to the age of 17 and brought her international recognition and acclaim." More can be read if you click on her name underneath the quote I used above.
