Purpose is definitely the wrong word here, it implies intent or planning. Nobody intended for them to be here, it's just how things turned out.

Bees have two purposes in life..... to pollinate... and to ruin picnics.

I totally agree with you there James, and isn't amazing how painful they can be.....

I love bees -- they make my flowers more beautiful! I work next to bees all the time, and I've only been stung when one got stuck in my clothes, and that was a wasp anyway.

OLD PICTURES


habitat shot near my grandparent's farm:


gravid nerodia sipedons in the lake


the same snake came out of the water and was very curious about my presence...

my old leo outside on an elephant ear plant:


Stubby from about 2 years ago. she was very unhappy with my wanting to take pictures.


This was seriously the best snake ever. REST IN PEACE SPOOKY! she passed away due to eggbinding in 2005.
