Bee Balm and Bee #ShadowshotSunday

From mid-July:  my bee balm plant, complete with bees.

Hard to see here.
A better view.

We have so many fewer bees than in fewer years.  I hope this last, beeless picture isn't our future.

  3. That’s a pretty flower.

    And where would we be without bees?

  4. I am very cautiously encouraged this year. There seems to be more bees of a wider range of species than I have seen in several years. Some of my fellow naturalists are experiencing it too. We take hope wherever we can!

  5. Fewer bees may spell doom for us all.

  6. Pretty flowers. I hope they figure out what's hurting the bees soon. It's probably something mundane that we're doing.

  8. I have plenty of bees, it's the butterflies I miss. So few in the past few years.
