Tales from Rural Maine: Sleep tight, little squash bee

"Male squash bees sometimes sleep inside the blossoms in hopes of encountering a female." Aww...I am totally picturing a sleepy, amorous squash bee waking up each morning after a cold night alone in his squash blossom hoping that today will be the day that he encounters a friendly lady bee. (Source of quote: Mother Earth News)

:-) I still feel totally inspired by male squash bees. If I had talent as a visual artist, I would totally illustrate this so sweetly and cleverly. Oh, wait. I can write? Maybe I'll write a story about this and then someone wonderful can illustrate that. Sleep tight, little squash bee. I hope you find love in the morning...
