Summertime
On a hot summer day the Livingstone Daisy waits for the morning light before opening.
Once the bloom is open all sorts of creatures will come for a visit. This fellow is a Hover Fly.
The Hover Fly will enjoy the sweetness of this daisy.
"Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer You'll wish that summer could always be here Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer Those days of soda and pretzels and beer."
Hans Carste and Charles Tobias, Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer
LISTEN: Lazy Hazy Crazy Days of Summer---Nat King Cole
"Well I’m a-gonna raise a fuss, I’m gonna raise a holler
About workin’ all summer just to try an’ earn a dollar
Everytime I call my baby, to try to get a date
My boss says, no dice, son, you gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder what I’m gonna do
’cause there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues."
Eddie Cochran, Summertime Blues
LISTEN: Eddie Cochran--Summertime Blues
"Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head"
John Sebastian, Mark Sebastian and Steve Boone, Summer in the City

lazy hazy and hot days of summer, they forgot that part. Jake will jump himself to death chasing these hover flies, they hover about 2 feet over his head and he jumps straight up trying to snap them. and i have no photo, imagine that. i have him jumping but not the fly. that first shot is divine
And we are finally enjoying summer along with you! I see you are getting some really hot weather in the near future...

It's pretty! Have a wonderful weekend! xx

What a gorgeous flower. Mom wants a top that color.
We love the summer time songs it is most definitely a hot time in our city and we'd love to roll up the lazy, hazy crazy days 'cause it is too hot to make a dollar and everyone is looking half dead and wilted.

really fantastic captures
It's been a while - just stopping by to say hello and tell you how much I enjoy seeing such lovely photos! I see you here and there on some of the blogs of my dear cat friends and hope all is well with you! As a matter of fact, I just got done from commenting at Austin's site and his plight with the mouse in the hole!!
Please stop by to visit Zee and Zoey when you can - we've been nominated for two Pettie Awards (Best Designed Blog and Best Blog Post) and if we win, we will be donating $1000 to a local animal shelter!!
