The lazy, hazy, hot days of summer; when all you wanna do is hang out in a hammock (aka water lily bloom) and wait for a snack to fly by….

The leopard frog gang, aka the ‘croak pack’…waiting for dusk to get their party on. Can you see all three? It seems they’re just waiting in the shadows for the chicks to come strolling by. That or dinner….

And this lily pad was just blowing bubbles for some silly summer fun…

And on a side note, when Oscar our resident squirrel hangs out at the Bee Bar, they don’t seem to mind in the least. How very tolerant of them. 🙂  The bees are certainly not as friendly about sharing their watering hole with everyone though, and jealously protect it since they use the water to cool the hive. When the birds come splashing in, you’ll see some major buzzing and harassing, until the birds finally leave in a cloud of angry bees. I guess Oscar’s just a charming guy. It probably works in his favor that all the worker bees are female and he’s the only dude in the bar. Gotta love them odds.
