As I lay me down to sleep, I realize I need to write up a quick blog. Happy things for today:
- Instead of doing the things I should have done early this morning, I took some down time/self care.
- Later in the morning I went for a walk with a friend for a different kind of self care.
- Lens identified a new to me plant-or at least I don't remember it.
 |
| The purple flowering plant is a pickerelweed. |
- Sometimes I take pictures quickly and look at them later and notice something. This time there was a bee that I didn't see when I got close to take a picture of this bindweed.
 |
| Bindweed with a yellow jacket? |
- When I got the SD card from the wildlife camera I noticed a vervain plant and some jewelweed.
 |
| Probably common vervain. |
 |
| Orange jewelweed. |

Thanks for reading, stay safe.
Your yellow jacket might be a sweat bee. When I zoom in close on the photo, it's thorax looks metallic green to me. They're fairly docile, from what I've read. I first learned about them after spotting one at the Adams Point WMA in Durham - a cool-looking bee!
