Wildflowers and Bees Galore

We are joining Dory in featuring flowers on Friday!

The bumblebees in our area are flourishing with our incredible wildflower crop.
 They adore the purple Loco Weed.
And I love watching them.
 It looks like Lady Bugs like the Locoweed as well!
Our pollinators have been so plentiful that I sometimes see bugs flying out of the flowers as Shyla runs through them. Shyla isn't allergic to anything that we know of yet. However, Angel K was allergic to a huge array of things. I still haven't learned not to hold my breath in terror when our chocolate lab is near potentially biting bugs!
Shyla doesn't worry about it like I do... and I'm glad for that!

    Somehow seeing bees makes me feel that something is all right in our world after all. Love Shyla romping through the wildflowers.

    Love the pictures of the bees. You know our angels come back as ladybugs and butterflies so that ladybug could be Rover or Astro

    Oh, to not have the "worry gene"! Beautiful Shyla looks blissful on her romp through the flowers. And happy to hear both the flowers and bees are thriving in your neck of the woods!
