Yippeee!!! Look What Was At My Feeder

I saw one year before last...and now this one.

A rosebreasted grosbeak! The pictures are a little fuzzy because I'd just put the screen back in the kitchen window. Darn!

We have those around front where my flowers are. Ott says the white faced ones won't/can't sting. Well, let him get close enough to them to see their face...not me.

They don't. My aunt grabs them sometimes. And it is a white faced bee that is tormenting me. He's been outside our back door ALL week. He won't let me walk outside!

You too?! I have roses right near my front door. This big fat bumble bee hangs out there. I know it won't sting me, but I'm still afraid of it.
