When I went out to my front yard this morning to look at my flowers I saw that the bees went totally crazy about the poppies. At least one bee was sitting in each poppy, but in many there were two or more bees circling around eager to get to the nectar.
There was a steady humming in the air. One thing's for sure - there is no bee crisis in my meadow.
There are still more poppies opening, the beauty is not ending yet.
Wow. And your photos of the bees in bee bliss were amazing. I never seem to be able to capture them - except by accident.
ReplyDeleteWOW, look at them go, so glad to see them, they getting less and less:(
ReplyDeleteGreat photographs, Carola! I'm trying to grow some poppies from seed this year, wish me luck!!!
Have a great weekend!

How wonderful, Carola. All that lovely pollen.
ReplyDeleteThe bees have finished with our ornamental crabapple tree now. The whole tree was a-buzz with them last week.
Your photos are just beautiful.
