Bee at Sacred Mountain Lavender farm

Spent a fun time at Sacred Mountain Lavender this week  (Thanks for the idea Sue!) watching this guy and his pals. They were in constant motion and the lavender was blowing in the breeze; challenging to photograph!

    These are brilliant! I never thought I’d see a bee up that close. Well, hoped I never would, actually… They’re gorgeous.

      Thanks. It was strange really; towards the end of the time I was there I realized the bees had lots to do beside sting me.
