Friday Flowers- Yellow Trumpet Vine, Small Insects

Posted on November 12, 2010
Yellow Trumpet Vine, Flowers
What a Cheerful Color!

The place where I used to click butterflies has now some yellow flowers too. Found out the name today and realized these are called yellow trumpet vine. Got only a very partial view of the bee in the picture above but what to do they don’t like to pose.

Do not know what the small insect is called that, if you strain your eyes, you can see in the middle flower at the bottom. It was so small and it took me quite a few shots to get even this much of clarity.

    We have lots of these flowers here, and i think that the insect is a variety of ladybird. I have seen these insects in the flowers too. thanks to you I now know the name.
