I don’t know what’s so special about these flowers. They don’t even smell good. No one’s left any messages here.

Check this out.
See these weeds here? These dried up weeds? They’re much more appetizing that any old yellow flowers.
Why don’t you take some pictures of these, person? I could hang them on the wall near my bed and look at them when I’m not on my trails.
I can’t believe it! There she goes right back to those flowers. No matter how much I tell her what’s important, she still doesn’t get it.
I think I’m about to give up on people. They like all the strangest things, and they don’t seem to care about any of the good things in life.
Person, if you can’t take pictures of any of the right stuff just put your camera away.
See, she did it anyway. Total disrespect. She just won’t listen to me.
Now put your camera away, person.
You found a what?
Wait a minute. What? What?
Someone’s trying to take over my yellow flowers?
How dare that butterfly hang around here?
You did send that butterfly away, didn’t you person?
Those yellow flowers are mine.

So, did you take revenge on that butterfly?

Avalon, I would have given that butterfly what for, but it flew off before I could get to it.

You better be the first to leave a message and water the flower

Benny & Lily, I’ll have to add “No Butterflies Allowed” to my message.

That flower intruder must be tasted! I ate one, once. Mom said, “Oh no you didn’t.” but Oh yes I did! Mmmmm.
Love and licks,

Cupcake, I bet that butterfly tasted good. Too bad this one flew off before I could get to it.

I think you should share the flowers… as you can see the butterfly can only really party with one flower and you can have the rest… at least you don’t have to share the flowers with a CAT!
Bongo

Viciously Sweet, you are so right. Sharing with a butterfly is much better than sharing with a cat. Maybe I should invite the butterfly into my house and send Scratchy out with the flowers.

I see you suddenly found an interest in those flowers, Bongo!!! At least your person disrespects you in a good way… first she takes beautiful pictures and then sends the butterfly away. Isn’t she nice?!
🙂

Marina, I guess it was good that my person sent that butterfly away. We might have not caught it in the act if she wasn’t taking pictures.

Everything on your trail is yours Bongo so just start charging that butterfly rent and it’ll be all good
Bongo
May 8, 2013 at 6:10 pm
Gizmo, I charge people loves if they want to use my trails. I wonder what I could charge the butterfly. Tickles?

I wonder if that butterfly was trying to show you something.. 🙂

Alex, Trish, and Penny, maybe that butterfly flew off to a secret stash of flowers that I don’t know about. Next time I’d better follow it.

Mom? No weeds close up?! WTD! Gotta do it for Bongo!! 🙂 That was a beautiful photo with the butterfly! Wow! Bongo, I think you’re just gonna have to spread the love on over to the flowers…hey, that way you can photobomb Mom too! 🙂
Bongo

Thanks Max. I guess those flowers are all mine now. That butterfly is gone and I’ve got to make sure he doesn’t come back and try to take over those flowers again.

Funny how we don’t care for something until someone else wants it. Have to learn to share…
Bongo
May 8, 2013 at 9:46 pm
Patricia, I think it’s something like the flowers are always yellower – or wait, maybe it’s the weeds are always better? What was that saying, anyway.

LOL! Nothing makes something more desirable than someone else wanting it. I think the flowers are lovely. 🙂

Thanks BZ. I’ve got to make sure no butterflies take over my flowers again.

Bongo, next time you sprinkle the butterfly away…. don’t tell your person and Granny I’ve said that 🙂

Thanks Dalton. Sometimes it seems like us dogs just can’t win.

My mom loves these yellow flowers that look like wild chrysanthemum! They’re so beautiful! The color of the flower goes really well with shiny sun! 🙂
Bongo

Kevin, my person really likes these flowers too. We have several kinds of little yellow flowers on my trails this time of year, but these are the prettiest and we’ve only found them growing in one place.

Sometimes you’ve got to share you flowers, especially with nice butterflies although they can make you dizzy trying to follow them.
Bongo
May 9, 2013 at 9:22 pm
Diane and Lola, I guess the butterflies are okay as long as they don’t spend too much time hanging out on my flowers.

Oh but they are such lovely yellow flowers and such a pretty butterfly too 🙂

Misty Shores, my person agrees with you on the flowers and butterfly. I prefer something that’s better to eat.

You said you liked the weeds Bongo. Mom likes the yellow flowers and is really happy to see the beautiful butterfly. She is happy your Mom got the picture 🙂

Lexie and Mica, I’m not sure what people see in those flowers and butterflies. I guess I’ll never figure people out.

May 9, 2013 at 11:27 pm
Probably not Bongo they just never like the things we are so interested in. Our Mom is all into flowers too; but we won’t complain it gets us on woods walks and fun swims. So even though I’ll never understand I still get what we want too 🙂

Unfortunately, humans have reduced senses. Thus, they do not mind at all that their camera cannot capture smells but solely sights. I think they are hopeless.
Bongo

Kolytyi, I bet I could get rich if I could invent a smell recording camera. All the dogs would like it at least.

Wow! A Flutterby!!!! We collies love flutterbys.. we chase them all day.. as for the flowers.. water them and they will then wilt and then look like the ones we like!

Ginger, you always have such great ideas. Wilted flowers and chased away flutterbys. That would solve all my problems. Well, most of them anyway.
