Last night on the brief walk to Pasta Moon to watch the game (Yessss!) and to eat pizza & vino with Nicole, I stopped suddenly, back tracked a few feet, bent over and examined the sidewalk. She said, “No Jenn, it’s not a dead bumble bee it’s a broken piece of asphalt. Come on!”.
That’s right. I collect dead bees. I store them in apothecary bottles and put them on my office shelves for the future, when the world’s currency is bee.
Anyway. The whole thing reminded me of a very sad photo shoot I did the other week of a honey bee in my garden. He was clearly dying and I took about 100 shots of the process. Poor guy was at the end of his buzz and simply sputtering out on the tip of a viola flower. Here he is:
I tried to think of a better, more clever title for this post. But couldn’t. This is a finger puppet on a shrub.
I was walking down Burlingame Avenue and saw this rare specimen of Finger Puppet Shrub – or ‘Finguarius puppettus shrubus’. Although I was in a food coma from the awesome Burmese restaurant down the street, I still managed to be an on the spot photographer and capture these amazing shots.
The humor of this sighting was not lost on me, and I’ve determined it’s from one of two things:
A) A child was playing with it, walked by the shrub, put it on said shrub, and walked away.
B) It’s the result of some weird sexual game.
You decide.
