Ahh my yard is so fragrant with the wonderful flower blooms. The wysteria makes the WHOLE yard smell like fabric softner. Gosh I love this stuff.

Ok I went in for an iris closeup,and if you look close on the left side you'll see a bumble bee's butt sticking out. LOL I didn't see it until I snapped the pic and it chased me away. I ran across the yard like a wuss screaming. )

LOL @ Synastic!

Thanks for the compliments. You should see the swarm of bumble bees around that wysteria. I am terrified of them,so it's like a Fear Factor thing to me. LOL
