It was 5 pm, supper in 30 minutes, sunny out & gusty, the temperature already 12C heading towards 4C overnight. Hardly bee weather, but after a long day at my desk, I needed a stretch. I remembered goldenrods along the ballpark edges, 2 blocks away. Perfect. How many different kinds could I observe before supper? Three, and one hoverfly, as it turned out. Then back for dinner on time. No uncommon discoveries among them, but a good session. Almost any time while the season lasts can be made to work. The harder the circumstances, the more delight in finding subjects and capturing them.
