Occasional Toronto: Bee

Bee

This mural on Bloor St in the Annex neighbourhood was just completed a couple of weeks ago. The artist is Nick Sweetman and he wanted to show "humanity's insignificance compared to the rest of the universe" and at the same time bring attention to the plight of bees. Wonderful, isn't it?
