    Our roses seem to be coming in for particular attention (white, red, orange). I assume they're not from the swarm that passed overhead a few days ago! :D
    Flowers, bird song, bees, hover flies, beautiful weather. It makes me glad to be alive and appreciative of how lucky I am.

    I agree, loving the sunny weather , sound of birds and kids playing out. Plus the way my dog lies on the back step surveying his domain!

    Love to see bees buzzing around. Not keen on wasps though. Although I do see plenty of wasps in late summer on my fence panels stripping away the wood to make a nest I presume which I nice to watch.

    Have a great day Lil and the rest of the BBS.

    I really miss having dogs, Helen. Perhaps one day we'll get another one, or two.

    It's when he wants to do the same in winter that you'll be glad you don't have one!!

    I've always talked to the birds when in the garden. But now I've caught myself talking to the bees, too! :D
    If you don't hear from me in a while, it'll be because Crystal will have locked me away in the shed to keep me away from the public! :D

    I think you've misunderstood what they meant when they said that at some point every parent has to have the birds and the bees talk.
