For #ThickTrunkTuesday, a freakishly thin-trunked Common Thread-Waisted Wasp (Ammophila procera) that was visiting the front garden last weekend.

Ruby-throated #hummingbird in our front #garden. After the spring migration wave passes I still see one or two that stay around through the summer. Haven’t been able to get any photos of it but yesterday I got lucky, walked out with camera in hand and it was right there at the #zinnias. The numbers will swell in a few weeks and they’ll hang around till the first strong cold front blows through in late Oct or so.

55 years ago today. And my #Apollo11 landing commemorative t-shirt arrived just in time for it. My father helped develop guidance systems for the Apollo lunar lander, it’s amazing that they succeeded with the technology of that time.

Blue Dasher #dragonfly on a Red Yucca flower spike in our front #garden yesterday evening. Last year dragonfly sightings/photo ops at the house were very few and far between so I’m hoping this is a sign of better luck this year.

Jasper contemplates his #Caturday agenda - wide open and full of possibilities - as far as in which chair or bed he will spend the day sleeping. Decisions decisions.

Jasper suffering through yet another of the regular hugs he receives from my spouse. I see the silent cry for help in his eyes but I can do nothing for him. Tough it out Jasper.
