Bumblebee

... what a sweet name! In German she´s called "Hummel", which doesn´t sound nice at all!
Here she sits, in one of my sunflowers. You can click to enlarge.

Yes, taken with this cam - is really great for bright days!!!

Ingo thought she was dead and I know that sounds stupid, but at first it felt odd to take pictures. Maybe not dead, only deaf! The clicking of the camera didn´t impress her at all, but when I came back she was gone.
Isn´t she just beautiful?

We went to the hardware-store today, didn´t get what we needed, but Ingo bought me two sunflowers for 1 €!

A gardener is included in that!!! And he brings his tools and own house even, too:



I didn´t like the house and Ingo, the creative one here, made some very cool 70´s platform shoes from parts of the roof for my gardener.
He now lives on the grass in the windowsill. Hope he´s happy with that:



My Poppy finally blossoms, too!



You just step out the door these days and the city is so, so beautiful:



Summer...

We also saw this car, belongs to the garbage-management (German) and it says:

"[Break up with your garbage. But do it right.]"

Funny pic, no? Yips, waste separation is great ;-)

You need to click to enlarge to really see it.



From left to right; Paper, compost, rest-garbage. Rest garbage certainly is not glass, metal, plastic or batteries, those go extra in public bins (that are always full here. If they got emptied you shortly after see people running there with the "residues" they have had so long in their apartments - us included. That´s sadly no joke).
