This doe had been looking for food and I just put out some sunflower seeds, she didn’t want to wait, fortunately I had some corn and apples on hand for her.
Terrestrial Gartersnake. Snakes actually smell with their tongues. They flick the tongue out and pick up particles in the air. When they retract the tongue back into their mouths, the particles are detected by what is know as the Jacobson's organ on the roof of their mouths. I took this photo at Reservation lake in the central mountains of Arizona USA

Rosemary and Honey bee
Honey bees have 170 odorant receptors in their antenna, and have a sense of smell 50 times better than a dog. Bees are able to detect scents with their mouths, antennae and tips of their legs (tarsi). In all these areas bees have sensilla: tiny, hair-shaped organs that incorporate receptor nerve cells.
Their sense of smell is so precise that they can distinguish hundreds of different plant varieties. They can't resist the smell of my rosemary.
HMM!
Sunshine all over for almost two weeks now, despite frosty nights our nature has made a significant progress. Dehme, Ostwestfalen, Germany
Yeah, I've been gone on business
I've gotta make some money
I really feel the distance
And I quite miss home
And I miss you telling me
To leave my shoes at the door
'Cause you just swept the floor and the dirt drives you crazy
Yeah, I quite miss home
'Cause it feels like poetry
When the rain falls down on the window
While you're in my arms and we're watching the TV
Yeah, I quite miss home
Yeah, I quite miss home
I smell you cooking from the living room
And then I tell you that I love your food
I know it doesn't come easy
But you know it reminds me where I'm from
Lots of you appreciated the close-up of my clematis - here is a wider view showing it flowers abundantly. And early too: last year I took a similar photo on 10 May, this year it started flowering from the beginning of April!
Yes, it has a faint but lovely sweet smell, which already attracts bees.
During the Summer especially when the sprinkler system is on Dragonflies for some reason love these white Echinacea when wet, you can actually see them move their head to the direction of the water,
