Death’s bleached mask peeks through
Flowers that ignore its claim
Life laughs last, again

A bee butt on a red, spiked flower at the Houston Zoo. I don’t know the name of this flower.
Update: The flower is a Red Bottlebrush (thanks to Judy King for the identification).
The first bluebonnets are blooming. We’ve had good spring rains and are expecting photo opportunities galore. There are always plenty of people who stop and park right on Interstate 35 in Austin for their photos. My plan is to look for bluebonnets on country roads and in parks.
