vegetable flowers

My daughters' books say that bees collect pollen on their legs. This one seems to be more into the whole body experience. We are grateful, of course, however they choose to pollinate.

this and that


This frog spent it's whole day on the zucchini leaf contemplating lunch.Speaking of zucchini and lunch. We had our first cukes (front) and zukes (back) for lunch yesterday (the tomatoes are store bought). I had no male zucchini flowers and so had to harvest them as babies, but they were yummy. Today for the first time I had male and female zucchini flowers! Looking forward to more substantial zucchini in the near future. Pretty soon harvesting them at this size will seem like a good idea.
