1st 2: ocotillos and clouds
|
Dr. K had an AAUW meeting this morning so it was Willow and me on the morning hike. We did the regular. It was awfully hot and somewhat steamy out there. We have a chance of rain this afternoon.
It looked rather brown in the desert today, so I was surprised to find a few barrel cacti with blossoms; also the Stinging Serpents were blooming, and I took a photo of a green sweat bee on one of the flowers.
It's cloudy right now (1:15 p.m.) and it feels cooler than it did this morning when Wils and I were trekking about.

Nice images of the Green Sweat Bee on the Stinging Serpent flower. Interesting name for the bee.
