Bees and Bunny on a day off

DENALI PARK, AK - - Whether it's the common dandelion or the wild rose, it seems the honey bees are buzzing everywhere. Especially on a morning after a nice rain. The long hours of daylight give the plants and flowers a lot of energy so they grow about twice as fast.
I surprised the young snowshoe hare in the pic below as he was chomping on a clump of grass..at least I thought he was chowing down. Since he ran off with a mouthfull of grass and disappeared into a warren of rocks maybe he's bringing some 'take out' to those still at home and too young to venture out.
