Sitting on the deck after supper drinking our tea, waiting for a downy woodpecker to come a little bit closer, this Tricoloured bumblebee started amusing us. First, he was checking out the Bacopa. But then he turned to the white clover, and that's what he really got face and eyes into. His paniers looked full of pollen by the time he left. Okay: his corbiculae. Or pollen baskets. And, yeah, I know I spelt tricoloured two ways. Those -our spellings have huge variation in Canada. And, willy-nilly, I'm Canadian. And panniers the *very* old-fashioned way. But there you go. You can take a man from his history of English books, but you can't take the history of English from the man.
