Spring to Summer

It's the buggy time of year in the tropical rain forest, which I understand New Orleans qualifies as. Been fighting fleas, stinging caterpillars, termites and mosquitoes. Oh, and the occassional flying cockroach!!Yes, they can fly!
Having no real freeze in winter and a damp, hot spring - and a city that no longer sprays for anything - well, we de flea the dogs, have a termite guy and a household pest guy - so my frustrations are here with the promise of summer.

Bugs make the world go around--literally. The pollinate my trees and garden. I love the liveliness of you image and especially all the ants. Cool.--skunk

Well, warm has its price, right? (ours is damp cool--slugs are a favorite, skeeters in summer, spideys all year, but especially in the fall when they are trying to find a dry home)
Great idea--a Cinquain poem about bugs--glad you included the butterfly.
