Day 151 - a Year by the Sea

Rosa rugosa or beach rose. After all the flowering shrubs and weeds, I thought that the bloom season was over. How could I forget these? These are at Belle Isle park but over by the entrance to Deer Island is a large thicket which attracts most of the bees in Eastern Massachusetts. Besides this color, there is a scent which will overpower your nose and lead to thoughts of romance. The bird migrations are slowing down as they all settle in to nesting and raising the young. It’ll be busy for a while until the long stretch of August nears and the reverse migration begins. The cycle turns on.

Ciao!
