The Pollinator

Friday, June 6, 2008

There are places along the river that are hidden from view unless you know to look for them. I like to visit these spots from time to time to see what I can see. Sometimes I’ll duck into a stream or hidden pond and just have a snack and read awhile without anyone seeing how lazy I can be. I was doing just that this past Sunday when I was lucky enough to catch this guy at work. I was luckier still to get a couple of shots in focus. I’m not sure what the flowers are but they look like a photo of Multiflora Rose that I found in the Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Wildflowers, which would make it an invasive species. What I can tell you for certain is that they smelled terrific. JK
