This is what I found this morning in my little garden. In fact, most of the blossoms were sporting 2-4 bees. I was given a reminder of why it may not be best to spray insecticides in every situation. The cucumbers beetles are not in great numbers at the moment, so I'm just squishing the ones I find.
I'm still not sure how my harvest will turn out, but for now I will enjoy all of the buzzing.
The bees seem very happy!

Oooh, since I'm allergic to bees, I hope they don't swarm that volunteer plant that's taking up residence in my flower bed.... its right next to the front door! I'd be scared of my own house! I try to keep bee plants a bit further afield, not in my daily walk ways. We all need to be sure we have bee habitats, I just don't want to have them next to the doors!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little scared with bees. It hurts when they bite you! :( Have a nice day!
