Title: the frost and my cidra
Post by: abejaruco on December 16, 2007, 02:40:24 PM
There was a frost last night. My CIDRA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cucurbita_ficifolia) is frozen. Not sure if the bee was sleeping in the flower and it is frozen too.

Abejaruco.  Nice picture, too bad the bee froze too eh?  I remember some time ago I was reading an article in a magazine and this author was asking people to report on a species of bee.  The male of this species was known to sleep inside the squash blossoms and the female lived underground.  It was interesting and I always saw little bees inside the squash blossoms.  Have a great and wonderful day.  Cindi
