Bee Bopping

DSCF1894


I saw these bees as we were walking and they weren't moving. I thought it was getting chilly enough that maybe they had died right there. It made me pretty brave as I stuck the little camera really close snap, snap, snapping. . .

Imagine my surprise when one of them moved a little. I zipped away real quick!

  2. It's lovely to see bees. In the UK they're becoming a bit of a rarity, but their plight has been widely discussed in the media and a record number of people are now taking up beekeeping. I may do myself but want to wait until spring to think about it seriously.

  4. I think they look great. Especially since there are no more left where we live. It is much too cold.
