It has been so warm here that the honey bees are out, this one was busy in the rosemary yesterday afternoon. I'm linking up with Jan at Murrieta 365 for Straight Out Of The Camera Sunday and Your Sunday Best with Nancy at A Rural Journal this week. Stop by to see all the lovely photographs!
Those little guys are workaholics, starting already. And they help use so much in our gardens!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! After our cold weekend, I think I'm done complaining about our warm winter.
ReplyDeleteIs that rosemary the bee is on? I love rosemary, but I have a hard time overwintering it inside. I think it just needs more pot space than I can give it. Beautiful shot.
ReplyDeleteI thought it looked like rosemary as well. Lovely photo! It is always so nice to see bees at work in the garden.
ReplyDeleteClint,
ReplyDeleteYes they do and I encourage them to hang around with the rosemary and lavender!
Teresa,
I'll take warm over cold any day! LOL!!
shutterbuggbitten and Kateri,
ReplyDeleteYep, I was down milking the goat when I realized I had typed lavender instead of rosemary! Duh!! Good eye! :)
Great photo :) I'm glad you have healthy honeybees in your area!
ReplyDeleteLisa Lynn,
ReplyDeleteThe only problem with our local honey bees is that most of them have bred with the Africanized bees and we have to be careful!
Kristina,
Thanks! :)
Wonderful to see them - with the ice storm last night it will be a long time before one will visit the farm. Thank you for reminding me that spring will come.
ReplyDeleteOh my! Total spring :) Enjoy your Sunday!
ReplyDeleteGrace,
ReplyDeleteYou guys sure have been hit hard with the winter weather recently! Stay warm!
Ivanhoe,
It was so lovely yesterday afternoon that we were sitting out on the front porch! Happy Sunday to you too! :)
we got a cold snap this weekend so all of our bees and bugs are in hiding!
ReplyDeleteKeep it away from me! I'm not super allergic, but I have a bad reaction to the stings.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image Candy. Our honeybees have been hanging around my garden since early January here. It sure is strangely mild for winter. Thanks for sharing this wonderful image. I just love honeybees, bumblebees, and mason bees.
ReplyDeleteLovely image, Candy! You must be enjoying some wonderful "winter" weather!
ReplyDeleteTWG,
ReplyDeleteSmart bees and bugs! :)
Tayet,
I'll keep it way down here in Arizona! ;-)
Heidi,
ReplyDeleteI love all the bees too, they are so helpful with our gardens and fruit trees!

Fabulous macro shot, Candy! It's cold and snowy here today -- no honey bees around. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing at YSB.
SweetLand Farm,
ReplyDeleteIt has been unseasonably warm recently but we are supposed to be cooler for this week so the bees will probably go back to hibernating.
Nancy,
Thank you! :)
Sheryl,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I really enjoy reading about what you guys are up to on your blog too!
