flight of the bumblebee

Tiny chumley buzzed about the backyard yesterday, happily moving from shrub to shrub, bush to bush, in search of the source of the smells that were tingling his senses so. Blissfully unaware, I now realize, of all the powdery pollen he was collecting on his body and up his snoot.



Hopefully, a break in temps and some rain this weekend, to turn my buzzy bumblebee back into a little dachshund.

Didn't believe that could be pollen in Baxter's nose until I heard on the news that your area had BAD pollen this spring. Am happy to send you our cold, wet weather!! Glad to see Baxter has found his collar!
