Why, yes, this year is the 100th anniversary of the publication of James Joyce’s Ulysses in book form, and today, June 16th, is the date the book takes place, so here’s a Broad-banded Hornet Fly (Spilomyia alcimus) because why not. Why it’s holding up its forefeet, I don’t know.

    I enjoy your daily posts very much, and enjoy the lighter moods as well. This week I saw lightning bugs flicker in the yards of neighbors in the early evening. That’s a true sign summer is in full swing as well.
