I was waiting near my pond as this blue banded bee was visiting.

I was under the hot sun that day playing cricket out of Mysore when this was re-posted. On my return [after our team lost the crucial game and could not qualify for the semi-final] last night, I see there were some 30+ messages here.. Now today I'm sitting a while to take in all the accolades you have showered and re-showered to this photo-banner. It's a good dose of joy to see all of them to start my day, post-breakfast and sipping coffee.

My sincere thanks to all those who have stopped by to click a few buttons and keys in appreciation. Hope life returns to normal soon.... after DD's marriage a moth ago and my cricket tour just concluded.

Thanks for the re-run, @Calif_Sue. Best wishes to all of you.

Dinu Thank You!
