I was planning on posting this today anyways, but now I find out it's #WorldBeeDay? I'm hoping that's a good sign 😅

I've been teaching myself how to use #Krita & dipping my toe into the world of #DigitalPainting.

Don't worry, I don't plan on ever stopping my usual pen & ink art, but there are some things I want to create that I need to stretch into other mediums for.

Anyways, I did a “learn krita while painting Bob Ross” tutorial which was super helpful, ...

I love the bing daily wallpapers, I especially love that they seem to always have a related wallpaper if it's a UN recognised 'day'. For example, today is Bee Day!

I have a script that can automatically download and set the bing daily wallpaper on my gitlab https://gitlab.com/tripplehelix/bing-wallpaper

Having a 15 minute break from STUFF. Idly wondered to myself what I could turn a fluffy bee into in that time, et voilà!

Right. Back to STUFF.

• I need to make something absolutely clear. I did not put a hat on this bee. I repeat, I did not put a hat on this bee.

• OK. But you did draw a face on its bum, yeah?

• What? Oh yeah, I did that. But it was ALREADY WEARING THE HAT.

A really patient little bug. I swear it was posing for me 😊

I like this time of year. A lot of the garden lawn turns purple, which is excellent.

Found this beautiful one, mostly-dead/waking up from a winter coma, on my attic. Brought her out and put into a plate of sugar water. She took about ten minutes to wake up and then there was intensive splashing & drinking. Success! (Both wings are fine!)

Some pollinators need more space.💛🐝🌼
That third one who needs personal space surely loves to get into mine 😂 But hey, eating pests is one of the best arguments...

Another garden image! This flower is called beebalm, and it's no wonder why. Pollinators love this colorful flower.

Took this picture a couple of days ago when it was sunny, but held off posting until #caturday. Thought I would mess with my camera while it was nice out. My cat Mobius found a #bee and was chasing it around the backyard and they stopped for a photo op!

Zoom in to see the detail, I'm pretty pleased with the pic overall 😊#photography #cats #flowers

Among #insects, bees stand out as crucial pollinators, small but vital for ecosystem health and agricultural productivity. What about their etymology?

Yes, I have bee-n stuck in too much traffic today. But not without a visitor passing on some greetings. No, traffic was not moving at all (hence the photo, safely taken). The bees know I am a beekeeper, even from outside, LOL. #bee
