Halifax Public Gardens

After brunch today I went for a walk at the Public Gardens. Lots of color there now. I caught this bee on some Verbena bonarensis. Unfortunately there is a lot of damage from Japanese beetles this year and there is still a lot of them on various plants.

As an extra photo I included a photo of the front of my house right now.

Thanks for all the comments, stars and favorites of my photo of the sandpipers in flight. I find it difficult to get good photos of birds in flight with the SX50 and I don't have a big enough lens to use my T6i. Usually I just focus on the birds on the ground, it just happened a flock took off as I was about to take a photo.
