Herbs are wonderful and Medicinal Herbs are a joy to grow, garble and use. As I start a new herb garden I hope that together we'll grow in our knowledge and love of herbs, sharing the joys of planting a new garden and the wildlife that share it.
Have you done a bee count in your garden? Well, not the entire garden, but watched a particular area to see how many bees come within a certain time limit. We are being asked to count bees in this way for the Great NZ bee count. I haven’t done it yet because the weather has been cold and dreary.
Terrific photos of flowers and bees.
😊 Thanks, Timelesslady. Have a good day! 🌸
Nicely done!
😊 Thanks, it was a very still morning! Thanks for stopping by 🌸
Wonderful images… Are the last few drone flies?
Yes, there were lots of drone flies the other day 🐝
These photos are Beautiful!
Thanks Riotflower! 🌸
They look like they are enjoying their meal 🙂 Very nice pictures
Thank you, first day of Autumn and hardly a bee or hover fly to be seen! 🍂🍂🐝

No I haven’t. On sunny days it can be very busy, but wet and cold today with few nectar plants left. ☔️💦🌊
Very accomplished photographs. A useful reminder that bees aren’t the only pollinators. Your hoverfly is Helophilus pendulus – aka Marsh Hoverfly.
Haven’t had many bees this year but many different hover flies. Thanks for info.
A beautiful display of bees and flowers!
Thanks ,have a good day 😊
