Busy Bees In The Garden

Bees Catching Some Zzzzzzs In The Garden

bee sleeping in the petunias in the polytunnel

"Oh what a glorious thing to be,
A healthy grown up busy busy bee,
Whiling away
The passing hours
Pinching all the pollen
From the cauliflow'rs ..."

I always thought bees were busy little creatures, dashing from flower to flower collecting pollen ... but today I caught one sleeping on the job ...

Ha ... BBBurro you wouldn't have said that if you'd seen the Zzzzs coming from the flower ...
Or when we tried to rouse it to take a moving picture ... I can tell you it didn't like being woken up!
