Bees n Blossom
14Sunday 20 April, 2014 by Uncle Spike
The noise around the orchard is quite something at the moment. With over a hundred clementine trees in full bloom, plus farms all around us, the bees are having a great old time of it. I’ve not found it easy to take many photographs of them ‘in action’, but here are a couple…

I tried to record the noise of all the bees – it’s quite something standing there in the orchard, but the video setting on my camera isn’t up to much. All you can hear are a few of our roosters… anyway, here it is 🙂

That was a lovely slice of life. Thanks for sharing!

It sounds like that when our lavender is in flower. Anyone with a bee allergy dares not climb our steps to our front door for fear of being stung, which is good when it comes to unsolicited sales calls!

Turks are, on the whole, petrified of dogs, so even though Bonzo is on a chain most of the time, no one dares risk it 😀

Our Bonzo eats 5-10 every day. Always has a puffy mouth from the stings, but he keeps on dancing around scoffing them as they buzz around where his kennel is.
