With the flowers, the bees have been abundant. Somehow, I've managed to get stung by bees four times so far this summer. In one case, a bee landed on my lip as I rode my bike and stung me before I I could brush him off. Fortunately, I'm not allergic to bee stings but they do hurt.
I'm glad that the flowers and the bees are doing so well. Sometimes, it feels as if Shyla and I are navigating a jungle of flowers.
Your flowers are so beautiful, the bees must be doing their job well. stella rose

ReplyDeleteIt must be so stunning seeing the wildflowers in such an abundance out in nature. Then Shyla makes the photo a masterpiece. :)

gorgeous flowers but i am thinking Shyla upstages them a little. i am afraid of bees and Jake chases them, he has been stung many times
ReplyDeleteSuch beauty! I especially love that last shot!

I like the yellow flowers up against your furs.
ReplyDeleteAroo to you,

You and Shyla sure are having a wonderful summer!
ReplyDeleteSorry about your beesting - ouch. My place has loads of bees this year, so I'm hoping they'll do as much pollinating of the vegetables as they are doing of the flowers. I've got bee balm and hyssop as tall as I am, and when I'm working right next to it every day I sometimes wonder if I'll get stung just by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Fingers crossed I won't - as you say, it hurts a lot.
Any sign of that little sad bear, KB?
Yes, we're loving the wildflowers too. Luckily no stings!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,

Yes, they sure are amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat is the " Macro" of the year!!! Golden girl in a field of gold, beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWe love your jungle of flowers, Shyla!
ReplyDeleteI hope I see those flowers some day. It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe detail on that bee is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThose are very pretty pictures. I have some bees around that have long wings, bee bodies, and a bat face. Strangest thing I have seen. They love my flowers

A agree, it has been a wonderful flower year here in the PacNorthwest too. PErhaps all the precip over the winter months helped?? Just love seeing Shyla's smile!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the bees are going strong somewhere - though I'm very sorry to hear they seem to mistake you for a threat! Thanks for sharing the lovely flowers.
ReplyDeleteHurrah! Miss your post on FB.
