Picture taking day. DH got back from taking the boys on a campout, and he's sleeping, so I had time on my hands to go take pictures.

Wildflowers are in bloom.





I finally got the shot I've been trying for! One of my honeybees returning with her pollen sacs full.


And the promise of figs:

I have a bee glamour shot, but for some reason, it's not uploading my cropped picture - it reverts back to the original. Gotta figure it out.

Rename it.

Sounds like a great deal to me!

You know you want to incubate it!

Yes.

I'm in iPhoto and I can't see how to rename it.

Ah, found it. It's not working.

Just click on the picture on your desktop and hold the mouse. A cursor will come up and you can rename it.

X2. They only make queen cells for two reasons- their queen is failing (not producing enough pheremones) and they need to replace her, or they feel crowded and want to split. If you give them more room and remove the queen cells that will quell that urge. Since she knows this is not the old queen but a newer one, I'm guessing the queen cells are reason #2.

It's just ONE egg Mary, how much harm could ONE do?
