  1. Great photo, Eliza. Bees move around so much they’re not easy to photograph. And those Epimedium flowers are so dainty!

    That’s a wonderful photo Eliza! (And I can imagine hard to get as they grow so low to the ground. 😉)

    Thank goodness for epimedium! I haven’t seen a bumble yet, but I saw a carpenter bee yesterday…☹️ See you tomorrow!

    I’ve never seen anything like that plant. It’s quite pretty; if I were a bee, I’d be attracted to it, too.

      Thank you, Linda. Asian in origin, they love a similar climate with moist, acidic woodland soil like we have here. Thankfully, they aren’t invasive!

    I love those Epimedium flowers. The gymnastic bee is an extra plus.

    Nature set out a banquet, and Mr./Ms. Bee bellied right up to the trough. Wonderful capture!

  23. So lovely. Bees are enjoying the new pollen this springtime-so peaceful watching them find it.

      Thank you, Monika. I love the drone of bees… it is the highlight of my summer garden, along with the streaking by of hummers, and dance of butterflies. Of course, I enjoy the flowers as well. 😉

    Wonderful capture, Eliza. I’m glad to see spring springing up your way. 🙂

    Lovely image of both the flowers and the bee. More than just narcissus aer blooming!

    • Eliza Waters's avatar Eliza Waters says:

      Thank you, Tom. This last week has seen such a profusion of growth. Primroses, Jacob’s ladder, bleeding heart, barrenwort… hard to keep up with the emergence!

  26. A great spot to land for a photo!
