On a hot Tucson day, I sat down in the shade and filmed flowers and butterflies......because there are so many around this time of year. We all patiently wait for the rains to arrive. For now most of us can be found outside during the early mornings or late evenings.
You see, we're still here but during the hot summer afternoon sun we all like to hide in the shade of a patio, a grove of trees, our homes, under a rock, under a bush.....or in the heart of a tree.

"Come back later.", we tell our friends as we are taking a siesta from the intense sun. Mojitos at 8 tonight:)
Great shots Chris.....i like the first very much.
ReplyDeleteGreetings, Joop
Lovely post, the flowers, butterflies and a mojito. What more could you want? Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteOH i love that 'heart of a tree', we dont see them here. But we have beautiful butterflies, although not just so plenty yet, waiting for the real heavy rains.
ReplyDeleteThat heart-shaped knothole was a real find!
ReplyDeleteSee ya' at 8.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos Chris - I really love the last picture. Hope you have had a great holiday.
ReplyDeleteDawn and dark are natural relief, but I hear you from 9 am to 7 pm...keep it dark and cool-feeling! Funny how the monsoon season will awaken us humans, just like the desert flora and fauna. When I first moved to Abq, people said "it's the sun that makes you tired", even in winter...now, I get it.
ReplyDeleteha ha! i prefer margaritas - i'll bring my own. :)
ReplyDeleteHello! Beautiful post! I liked the tree photo very much!
ReplyDeleteIn the "heart" of a tree! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! We really need some rain here, or else pretty soon it will look like Tucson!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, Chris. Love red roses.. your heart hide-away fascinates me.. make mine sangria, please.
ReplyDeletecheers
Chociaż u nas pogoda nie jest obecnie ładna, to takich upałów Ci nie zazdroszczę.Śliczne zdjęcia. Pozdrawiam.
ReplyDeleteAlthough in our weather is not nice, is such hot weather I do not envy you. Beautiful pictures of roses and a butterfly. Yours.
Awesome heart in the tree...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots, love all of them.
ReplyDeleteWe could do we some heat here.
As I write this we have 4 C (middle of the night), it's to cold for my garden.
