The Parting Shot for April 8, 2012 ²²

I have been seeing some incredible photographs by some other bloggers of bees on flowers. Being able to see the pollen clearly has absolutely fascinated me. So I thought I would try my hand at it. This is the best I took. Not near as good as what I’ve been seeing on other sites… like yours, Helen! But I’m pleased for my first time.

Post-publishing note: Well… you’re getting The Parting Shot a wee bit early today.
Last night I scheduled this to publish for tonight’s parting shot – and forgot that I have to schedule in military time.
So, I meant 10 PM but in reality I scheduled it for 10 AM. Oops……

I just could not help myself. Really, I couldn’t. This photo and caption simply deserves a post all to itself. Here we have the former President Clinton, his wife Hillary, and their dog, Buddy… er, I mean, Monica. (Sadly, Buddy died a year after President Clinton’s term ended after being a hit by a car near the President’s New York home.)
