I’m back from my mom’s condominium, where the excessively manicured sprayed and poisoned landscapes are barren of bees and butterflies. So glad to be in my garden where the wild things are. Here is a great big bumblebee busy at work in our front yard.
I'm back to 3 day working weekends, long brutal days, so weekend posts will tend to be on Monday or Tuesday...lol Last week saw plenty of wet heavy #snow#rain and some #sunshine #Flowers are coming along anyway mostly in the garden + wild catkins and first wildflower (not shown here, yet) -this week: cool/rain then mid-20sC! #SixOnSaturday#Alberta#MayDay🌱🌿❄️📷#garden
