Busy As A .....!


This bee was certainly living up to its reputation as it went from flower to flower gathering nectar. It has been hot here the last week and for the first time ever I have seen bees going to the birdbath for a drink of water. It surprised me but it makes sense.

  3. Love seeing bees at work. They are so important to the natural world, and the pesticides that poison them should be banned.

  4. You got a great shot of one of nature's little workers. I see bees hovering around fountains and water spouts quite often but it makes sense here water is at a premium.
