"AZALEAS"
"When the flower blooms, the bees come uninvited." ~ Rama Krishna
No flash photography
Last Thursday, I traveled with a great group to Alcorn State University and Natchez, MS for tours. It was a wonderful trip and the weather was beautiful. The sun was really shining down upon these hot pink azaleas and busy bees were swarming all around, so I had to be really careful.
"Alcorn is the oldest public historically black land-grant institution in the United States and the second oldest state supported institution of higher learning in Mississippi. Alcorn State University is a premier comprehensive land-grant university that develops diverse students into globally-competitive leaders, and applies scientific research through collaborative partnerships that benefit the surrounding communities, state, nation, and world." ~ Reprinted text from the official website here:

Notable ASU alumni include: Medgar Wiley Evers (Civil Rights Activist), Alex Haley (author of Roots: The Saga of an American Family), Kimberly Morgan (Miss Mississippi 2007), Michalel Clark Duncan (Actor), and Steve McNair (Former American professional quarterback for the Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens), to name a few. ~ Reprinted from Wikipedia here:
