Ray's Thought for the Day - I Don't Want This Job

Noper. I do not wish for the job of cross-pollinating milkweeds. That job must be an especially aggravating one. But in particular, it must be aggravating when the industrious pollinator is required to hang upside down to accomplish the required task. Yep. First you have to hook a pair of pollinia with yer leg hairs. Then you have to insert those pollinia in some vacant slots. You have to find, vacant slots and insert precisely into those vacant slots. Mercy! But then, if you are a Sarcostemma crispum pollinator, you have to do all the above, upside down. Any shade tree mechanic whose transmission casing once cracked and had to be replaced knows how aggravating a job this must be.

Sarcostemma crispum, Funastrum crispum maybe, in flower.
