Since water kept washing over my camera I ended up with water drops on the underwater housing and one is in his hair.
Having a little fun 4-wheeling today. We were on a very rough trail we have never taken before and had a little trouble in the loose rock. All is well and we were back on the road after a short delay.
This chap was digging for sand worms off Egremont Promenade, not for victory! 😄 Still, quite a task on a blisteringly hot day!

Progress after first (partial) day of digging.
Installing a rain garden at the bungalow. First step: dig out ~9 inches of soil in the ~100 sq ft garden bed. 6 inches of that will be replaced (with compost + soil, then a layer of mulch).
Monarch butterfly populations have experience a dramatic decline in recent years. One of the issues is a decline in the amount of milkweed on the landscape, the only plant eaten by monarch caterpillars, making it fundamental to the future success of this species. In reaction to the decline, the Service is working with partners across the nation to plant more milkweed.
In western North Carolina, the Asheville Field Office has worked with Monarch Rescue, Toe River Valley Partnership, and several other partners, including many school, to plant pollinator gardens. Students at Yancey County’s Bee Log Elementary School recently came out to plant a pollinator garden behind their school.

Perhaps another reaction to the news of Idaho's senior senator, who is not resigning and who has never met an interest group he didn't like unless it benefited wildlife, the environment, minorities or poor people...Photo by Frank

The Dinorwic quarry is a large former slate quarry, now home to the Welsh National Slate Museum, located between the villages of Llanberis and Dinorwig in North Wales. It was the second largest slate quarry in Wales, indeed in the world, after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda.
It covered more than 700 acres (283 ha) consisting of two main quarry sections with 20 galleries in each and a number of ancillary workings. Extensive internal tramway systems connected the quarries using inclines to transport slate between galleries.
Fred photographed this series of photos (15 Nov 2011) of a Blue banded bee starting to dig a burrow. The bee allowed us to move around it and take photos using a flash. She seemed quite happy for us to be there.
Here she is keeping an eye on us and starting to dig in. She had used her head to push the gray sand rock (in bottom left corner) out of the way.

This bee appears to be a different species than those shown in a previous photo.
