The flowers are lovely this time of the year around the pond at Innovation Place. But the plants are almost too lush - it gets hard to spot the wood frog or the fishing spiders. The bees are happy though!
They are so preoccupied with their work that they don't seem to mind a camera lens shoved in their face. Of course, that doesn't mean they sit still for long either.
While taking photos of the bees I noticed this tiny crab spider. They will tackle prey bigger than themselves, but I think this guy was waiting for something smaller than the bees. As usual, it is well color matched.
Lots of water lilies flowering but none close to shore where I could get closeups.
But I also love the hibiscus flowers, and they are readily accessible. For some reason my camera struggles to focus on the fuzzy protruding stigma. I like the yellow and red anthers on this one.
The duckweed is taking over around the fountain. I like the abstract pattern it makes.
