A couple of weeks ago Sean discovered the Sheldon Point Trail (it's on the way to the Irving Nature Park) so we went there as a family last weekend. These flowers were lining the path for about 250 meters and we happened to see this bee flying around collecting pollen. The pollen was stuck all over her body and you can see it on her leg in the picture. The hairs it sticks to are also referred to as plumose. By the way, does anyone know the name of the flower? It's seed pods explode if you roll them between your fingers.
This leaf got caught by a thread of one of the webs farther down the trail and Sean enjoyed the floating effect it produced.
And here's Simeon; having a great time on his new perch. If you can't tell the tree has grown on top of a boulder and the roots extend down to the ground. He had a ball.

They're called Snap Dragons, although I've never seen them in pink before - only orange. I love that last picture!
Simeon is cute on that root. <><
Simeon is sooo gorgeous! Watch out ladies!
