I love seeing pictures with bodies of water in them. I often wish I lived near a place with a large body of water close by.

Elizabeth...so U got me to wondering...what is the diff between a Lynx & a bobcat. Quote: "Lynx have an entirely black tail tip, while the tip of a bobcat’s tail is black on top, and white on the bottom." and the bobcats tail is longer than a lynx. Otherwise.....location is key. No Lynx anywhere near Colorado. So now I know....:0) Photo of how to tell Lynx & Bobcat apart

Jodi, does that sign say "Welcome to Balboa"? Oh, I clicked on it and it does. I had the greatest of pleasures to spend time there two years ago. What fun!! We took that ferry over. We stayed on Linda Island, I believe. Just loved it.

Nicole, I love that first picture. The colors are electric and the flag is really neat.

The Lobster festival looks like tons of fun too!

Nice pictures today.

Murraysmom, yes, that is Balboa peninsula. You stayed on Lido Island (not Linda) ... both are at Newport Harbor. We live just a few miles inland from this area. It's a beautiful and fun place to visit and I've done a number of photo shoots there. This photo was shot from a whale watching boat on its way out to sea.

I think I've determined that the wasps flying the pasture yesterday were Scoliid Wasps (Scolia dubia) which are are described as:

You DEFINITELY want this wasp in your yard. The favorite food for the larvae is the Japanese Beetle Grub. The female somehow locates an underground grub, digs underneath it and lays an egg on it. The egg hatches and the grub is doomed! If you see these in your garden, you also have an infestation of Japanese beetles.

They are also very timid - you can brush them off a plant and not get stung.

so despite being scary they are mostly harmless, and may help to control the japanese beetles that have been eating everything.
