I took a walk around the immediate neighborhood today to look for photo ops.
Bees and butterflies were very scarce, but I did catch a fly perched on a Rose
of Sharon bloom. This is cropped to two percent of the original image:

Because I have not had an opportunity to clear out the weeds and bushes
recently, the birds are enjoying the berries on the mature Poke Weed plants:

A neighbor up the street is adding a room to his home, and I noted a handy lift
in use to raise the shingles to roof level. A gasoline-powered cable system
pulls the platform up a standard ladder:
