I haven’t been anywhere today, apart from a couple of small car trips. I haven’t walked, which is bad. As it got towards midday, I became aware that I would have a problem with tonight’s post as I didn’t have anything to write about.
Spend 10 minutes in a garden that a beekeeper had praised for being bee friendly. annd the chances are that you’ll find a bee. Especially a bumble bee, which are probably amongst my favourite insects e(unlike spiders, which aren’t in that list).
The bee in the picture was very focused. Taken with my iPhone, it meant I was almost millimetres away from it. I fully expected it to fly off, but luckily it didn’t. I hope it was getting a good meal from the flower.
One frustration is identifying the flowers. I have an app on my phone, which works occasionally – I think to make it work all the time, I would need to pay a subscription, which I don’t want.
I went looking for butterflies as well. I had been sitting under the shed, and a really big one flew by. I didn’t respond straightaway (I should have done, Gilbert wouldn’t have been impressed. My search was frustratingly fruitless. I think I’ll have another look tomorrow.
