I don’t have nearly as many beans planted as Thoreau did in his fields near Walden Pond, but I am just as determined to learn all I can about them.

They come in all sizes and colors, and all are welcome here.

While capturing these images, I saw a praying mantis on one of the bean leaves. Perhaps it was determined to know beans too?
