But I will never be allergic to you, my WASP friend, no worries there!

I feel this way whenever I take measures that might or certainly change the way something would naturally play out. much as I hate spiders, I know they are friends to gardens and gardeners. I have to engage in a lot of wasp management as we have so many kinds. Great ones, evil ones, and dozens I have no idea what the hell to think of. Then I laugh too hard reminding them that I'm the supreme WASP around here.

Your words mean a lot. Yo...Thank you so much Robin! Your words mean a lot. Your Martin sounds like a pesky character! Sad to hear you have a drought; I think it's almost harder when you live in an area that's normally green year-round. Just so much suffering in the garden must be sad to see. We almost expect it in summer when everything's already brown.HotFlashHomesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05894953352910455222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721756258546233776.post-54799123166515727032017-08-02T12:01:33.487-07:002017-08-02T12:01:33.487-07:00Lovely post, and how true!!

I too am trying to play God in my garden by watering constantly, even the draught tolerant plants are suffering- may loose some. We are dealing with a martin, who likes to climb on our roof and move terra cotta roof tiles, and eat ripe heirloom tomatoes- in the night.<br />I love your outlook. You always make me take another look at our interaction with nature.Robin in Umbriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429875457770527234noreply@blogger.com
