Friday Flower Fiesta (2/1/13) — Visitors
Oh, woe is me. Somehow I lost a day this week even though I always have something scheduled each day.
For some reason, all day yesterday I was thinking that today would be Saturday and that I’d be down in Chula Vista watching the implosion of the old South Bay Power Plant.
Nope. Tomorrow is the implosion.
Today is Friday, which means it’s time for our Friday Flower Fiesta!
Today’s theme is visitors.
I’ll leave it to you to determine why……..lol

The close up aphids is unreal! As is the Ladybug…all the buggies, really. A buggy BUMPER post, Russ!
I like the butterfly.
Nice flowers… surprised you didn’t name them all… you’re usually my cheat sheet
lol
I didn’t name the flowers because they weren’t really the focus of this post, notwithstanding its Friday Flower Fiesta name………..lol
Have fun at the implosion, sounds like fun…I’m sure we’ll see the photos soon
Great photos! I love seeing all the visitors!
Wait a minute. You promised implosions!
Implosion will be tomorrow. Double promise.
Very nice flower pics. Enjoyable with the butterflies, bees, and beetles!
Great photos of “visitors”, most of which I like – the little green guys are creepy, though!
You don’t like my beautiful aphids? Without aphids, you won’t have ladybugs!……..lol
Makes me think; somewhere there is delicious honey.
Beautiful flowers!!! Great shots!!
Wow they are fab!
These are stunning, Russel! You must have infinite patience to capture these amazing shots. Sky is blue today, and am looking at the sea. Only takes a bit of sunshine to lift the spirits and your pictures bring the promise of spring and warm summers. Lovely!!
Beautiful shots!
Gosh those were stunning, thank you.
Bee-utiful!!!
Great photographs as usual. Inspires me to take more photographs.
Lovely flowers but lol I nearly had an implosion of my own at the sight of certain bugs on show!! Not least the rather large and abundant supply of green creepy crawlies
The ladybug was great
They don’t sting and aren’t scary!! But yea ok
They are very cool close up photos and I am suitably scared….I mean impressed
lol………..Seems no one likes my beautiful green creepy crawly aphids!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! lol
Perhaps. But if there is only one beholder and six billions others, it gets lonely being a beholder……….lol
Oh dear! But that is very true…I will try to see past their creepy crawliness to their true beauty ok lol…I don’t like to think of you being a lonely beholder of aphid beauty!
oooo ladybug!!! The watermelon – ewwww. Thanks for sharing!!!
I’ll be back later. Got to go feed V.

lovely..all of them
Unbelievable! I know those awesome clear and crisp pictures are no easy tasks. What are those green things?
Those as aphids. If you have a good supply of aphids, you’ll have a good supply of ladybugs. Ladybugs and aphids are kind of like peanut butter and jam, Mexican food and margaritas, black and white, stop and go…………..lol
Stunning! Makes me impatient for springtime and my garden!
