I'm hearing lots about the plight of the bee but I've seen more this year than ever. My bee mat full of wild flowers is coming along nicely ;D Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a great week ahead.
Aww thanks Jo, My photography seems to be taking the majority of my creative time...I really need to get into that art room. Trouble is the great outdoors keeps calling! Have a great week whatever you have planned...enjoy ;D
Hehe...you have to admit Rita they're kinda cute ;D I'm hearing lots about how their numbers are declining but I've seen more than ever this summer. Maybe my blooms and bee mat are helping after all. Have a great week xoxo
He does look all fluffy in his fur coat doesn't he? I love it when they're wearing the bright orange pollen trousers too ;D Have a great week ahead...enjoy!
Some are quite a size aren't they Jenn? I also wonder how they don't overheat in their fluffy outfits! ;D Great to see you...I hope all's well in your neck of the woods. I'll pop over asap in the meantime have fun and enjoy your week xoxo
Oops Tome maybe you shouldn't divulge such things online ;D hehe But if you've never been stung (actually I'm not sure if I have either) then I suppose it's understandable to fear them. It's the unknown element I suppose. Thanks for stopping by and I apologise for taking so long to reply. Enjoy the coming weekend.
Aww thanks pixiedusk, I just can't resist photographing any visitors into my garden and bees are always a favourite. I've probably got hundreds by now. Thanks for visiting my place and I apologise that I'm so late in replying to your comment. Have a great weekend ;D

I always wonder how those suckers fly when they're as big as swallows! I bet penguins look at them and think... "and it's me who can't fly???"
ReplyDeleteSome are quite a size aren't they Jenn?
DeleteI also wonder how they don't overheat in their fluffy outfits! ;D
Great to see you...I hope all's well in your neck of the woods.
I'll pop over asap in the meantime have fun and enjoy your week

Great shot - braver than me getting that close up. I've never been stung, so steer well clear of them!
