REFLECTIONS

If you've been following my blog for a while, you know that every so often I need to have an operation to release what is called a "trigger finger".  Each time it's a different finger. The pain when my finger gets stuck only lasts a few seconds but it can be intense, like touching a hot stove. It's not a serious operation for me. I insisted they only give me a local injection to numb my hand. Not only is it safer but I won't have a hangover from the anesthesia. I can also make sure they operate on the correct finger!

The blossoms are tiny and an intense deep red.  These photos show the pollen coming from their centers and landing on their petals.   Here you can barely see how tiny they are, hidden in the vines.  We had beautiful pink rosebushes climbing up the trellis but for the several past years they did not do well. Here is one from behind.

Hummingbirds are one of my favorites. I was lucky enough to make these videos. This first one is short. The second one is better.

Every once in a while I see one of these insects in my backyard. They're one of my favorites. I was lucky enough to make this video.
