While Florida doesn't experience a stereotypical winter, we do have our seasons. For one, this time of year insect activity is at a minimum. Where are the butterflies! Where are the bees!

They'll be back. In fact, they'll be back quite soon. Particularly the bees -- the butterflies will have a couple of incarnations to go through before they start flitting about.

How do I know we are on the verge of an insect upswing? The trees are budding and some even starting to blossom. Like our peach tree. It's called a "web of life" for a reason.

For now I can remember and anticipate. Hey, that web has cycles!
