The nest box is in a secluded space in the garden, fixed to the back wall of my shed. It is facing virtually due North and there are high thick bushes nearby.
For the past few days one of my weeping bushes which is full of catkins has been attracting scores of bees. When I walk past it the buzzing is so loud it sounds as though I am walking past a bee hive. They are so busy they take no notice when I put the lens of the Lumix a couple of inches away from them. They all depart with their pollen sacs fully laden.
She's tucked up in the best place today John.
ReplyDeletePouring with rain here.
Those bees have certainly been busy.
The rain only reaches the south of Lincolnshire recently but overcast most of the time. Those bees have been non stop for days. I wonder where they will go when that supply runs out.
DeleteKeith echoed my thoughts exactly. It must be nice and cosy in there with all this wild weather going on.
ReplyDeleteLovely captures of the very busy bees and a nice reminder that it is supposed to be Spring!
