Re: Bee's


Lots of big fluffy-bums here.
Also butterfies, including one of the dreaded cabbage white!

Re: Bee's


Wrong side of the Pond, but it's a bit early here for them. No butterflies yet either, but did see the first robin today!

Re: Bee's


My Robin is back I think he missed me while I was away as soon as I got the spade out he popped up...and stayed all the while I was outside....I know its the worms he likes but I can dream its me.

Re: Bee's


Yes we have plenty of BIG Bumble bees here they are everywhere and Maxi & Maisy have taken a great liking to trying to catch them, had to rescue about 4 of them today as they had got them pinned under there paws.
I wouldn`t mind but I thought Maisy might have learnt her lesson the other day after being stung by one she had caught, but obviously she hasn`t .
