Bugs!

A few pictures from the garden this afternoon, where the insects were hard at work:



 A couple of small Skipper Butterflies

A dragonfly














A very tiny blue butterfly.  I really tried hard to get a good picture, but it was remarkably uncooperative.  It was only about the size of my pinky fingernail.








There were hosts of these bumblebees on the flower heads.  Fortunately, they seemed intent on getting pollen and nectar, and didn't seem to mind me hover close by one bit.
