I had a lot of running around town before I could swim. In the water with me were beetles, tiny bees and wasps, two bumblebees, and too many spiders. One soon-to-be-mother perched on the twig I had propped on the ladder as an escape route. She clutched her pearl of eggs with her back legs. As I dripped off, a hummer visited the feeder. Other birds visited the cherry tree. The mountain mint hosted carpenter bees and leaf-cutter bees, thread-waisted and scoliid wasps, and skippers. The orchard spider was still above the azalea.
