The Sunday Greasy Pole competition with winner Nick Alvelis was a fantastically exciting event and I captured lots of good footage and have lots of great music in mind–hopefully the editing will be done by the end of today.
Common Milkweed (Asclepias syriaca)
Thanks to Al Bezanson for sharing this photo of Phyllis’ milkweed in bloom, with honey bees. I am not going to make my 2:00 posting deadline and Al’s photo came in the nick of time! My milkweed is still aways from blooming I think because the temperatures are warmer further inland. Thanks for sharing Al!
