The leaves on the trees around the Art building are still green, but looking a bit dry.
WE HAVE NEWS! The haws on the Russian Hawthorns (Crataegus ambigua) that I’m following have turned red, as you can see in the next photo. Note also the rabbit by the rabbitbrush (Ericameria) which is in its prime right now (the rabbitbrush that is).Just one cluster of haws on the East Hawthorn (labeled in previous photo).
There are more haws on the West Hawthorn, scattered about.
Rabbit (left) and Rabbitbrush (right).
Many insects were visiting the rabbitbrush flowers. This is just a small sampling, and the photos are fuzzy because everybody was really zipping around. It’s wonderful to see so much activity in Laramie this time of year (mild September so far).Bee, center of photo.
Not a bee I believe (but I'm NO entomologist).
My fave.
