Hello, my lovelies!
It’s a hot summer day, so I decided some bzzzzing bees were
in order! I was surprised by how many bee manis were there out there, and I
have a second one planned as well. They’re so cute!
The one I chose today is based on The Daily Nail’s, from
2010. I really liked the whimsy of the flight pattern in this. I spend a lot of
time in the garden, so I deal with bees on a regular basis.
I love the spring honeybees, who are nonaggressive and busy
with their pollinating job. The big old bumble bees that are cute and fuzzy
looking, are the gentlest of the bunch. They just want to hover over the
flowers. But those big, ugly, hornets ans wasp (including yellow jackets), stay
away from them. They are the aggressive, mean and very painful stingers!
Honeybees have been disappearing across the country in entire colonies, and
this is worrisome. A lot of people don’t realize how reliant we are on
honeybees for pollinating all kinds of crops across the country. Missing colonies is bad
news for everyone!
