FIN Bee🐝 and crocus🌷 🧵

One last image of one the fortunate bees that were able to gather some bright orange crocus pollen before we got some snow today. Fortunately, crocuses bloom in the snow and when the weather warms a bit the pollinators will return👍.

Bee🐝 and crocus🌷 🧵

Not a bee but most likely a damsel bug and with the first flowers it's not surprising to see some predators like the damsel bug lurking in the shadows or, in this case, standing on top of a crocus for the world to see, lol.

Bee🐝 and crocus🌷 🧵

Thought I'd share a thread of bee and crocus images for those still waiting for their flowers and bees to return.

This bee wasn't interested in waiting for this crocus to open and was gathering pollen from the exposed tip of the stamens.

Bee🐝 and crocus🌷 🧵

A good friend has large number of crocuses in his garden & they started blooming on Tuesday & that attracted the 1st bees I've seen this year. Thought I'd share a thread of bee and crocus images for those still waiting for their flowers and bees to return.

One of my favorite late spring/early summer native wildflowers is the Canada anemone. Last year there was a mass bloom of Canada anemone at the in , Iowa. I was not able to get any decent photos of the mass bloom of white flowers but hoping I'll be able to catch them this year🤞.

I take a LOT of photos & occasionally I lose track of images because I get distracted by the most recent images. That's why I go through my archive from time to check for images that I've missed. This is a recent "find". A beautiful gladiolus (Gladiolus) I came across in a neighborhood public garden on a July morning last year.

Despite being a uniquely beautiful, at 0.5 to 1.5 inches (1 to 4 cm) wide the Asiatic dayflower (Commelina communis) is easy to miss. A native in Asia, it was introduced into North America and often can be found in areas of disturbed soil such as the edges of construction sites and on the borders of developed/semi-developed areas.

The city of , Iowa, as well as my hometown of have begun devoting large portion of public land to prairie restoration. The restored portions of City Park in Iowa City played host to an enormous mass bloom of prairie coneflowers aka yellow coneflowers (Ratibida pinnata) which is one of my absolute favorites👍.
