The center of a lotus blossom in bloom… It’s been pretty busy around here, but Lucy and I will be back to our ball-chasing, nostalgia-rousing selves soon. I do see…feel, rather…that our heat wave here has broken, if for only a few days. It’s definitely back-to-school weather, and I’m feelin’ an urge to slip into a pair of saddle oxfords and dig out a woolly sweater… .

A photographer with a real camera, capturing the beautiful lotus blossoms. This area of the park is usually pretty deserted, but on this evening the photogs were swarming.

On a foggy Kentucky morn, a cornflower sits at the edge of the road bordering the hay bottom of my dad’s few acres. When the sun rises high and hot and burns the mist away, the azure blue blossoms will open wide and flat, welcoming waiting bees. Sunset will nudge the blooms inward, until a new day, and the cycle begins again. For the cornflower, life goes on, at least for the summer.

This poor Eastern Tiger Swallowtail I snapped in Eastern Kentucky has seen better days. Here, she—females have that band of blue on the hind wings—rests on a bloom of Queen Anne’s Lace along the neighbor’s barbed wire fence line. Follow the link to see a whole lot of beautiful yellow things!

Lucifer…not only a perennial, which attracts hummingbirds and makes for beautiful cut flowers, but also one of Lucy’s many nicknames. It’s reserved for those times when she gets a case of the meanies and insists on sneak attacks late at night, usually on our feet. Crazy dog.
