I try to explain that the bees aren't interested in them, they are only checking to see if they have pollen (in their bright colours) but all the waving and flapping about doesn't help. I mean they only survive approximately 40 days given any one summer, so why would they be interested in us! They're on a mission.<br />Lavender is quite powerful so I can imagine it might make you sneeze. My two have hay fever, but aren't bothered thankfully by lavender or any of the other blooms I have. I think there's is more of an allergy to grasses.Neesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254134409987044782.post-34847235323614545182016-08-23T11:01:31.568+01:002016-08-23T11:01:31.568+01:00I tend to forget the lavender is there, until I he...I tend to forget the lavender is there, until I hear the bees buzzing or brush past it and the perfume nearly knocks me out.

We really do need to do what we can for these important creatures.<br />Hubby happily out on his cycle ride this morning, so I have a few hours... phew... you can't hear my relief can you? <br />Neesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254134409987044782.post-2877517049367403382016-08-23T09:52:24.491+01:002016-08-23T09:52:24.491+01:00Aww that's a shame Rita, because I hate to tel...Aww that's a shame Rita, because I hate to tell you that they really wouldn't be bothered with you or want to harm you in any way. If they come near it's only to check if you are a flower and have pollen. Bees only live approx 40 days during a summer, so they are on a very tight schedule! <br />I'm happy that you liked seeing my bees up close and personal.Neesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254134409987044782.post-40684074036418404662016-08-23T09:48:46.187+01:002016-08-23T09:48:46.187+01:00Thank you Carol.
