Today the sun was shining for the first time, so I grabbed my camera and headed outside to get some shots.
I started of getting some flower shots, I could'nt really get the focus and lighting right so this was my best shot.

After taken alot of shots I moved on noticed a small fly on a chive flower, did a couple of pictures but the sun just was'nt helping.

I was just heading indoors cause the phone rang and I noticed this unlucky Bumblee getting drowned in the water, I grabbed a stick, let the phone rang and helped this poor critter out of the water. Put him on the edge and waited till he flew off, continueing is daily routine.
