From last year they were Sleeping Beeuties 2018 to

 

 

This year 2019  again these little kind and sweet bees have caught me unaware and when I opened

the sleeping box there were a few anxious looking faces!  So up went the boxes sharpish

and they were put on top to feel the fresh air and off they flew ~ they'll be back always

to the same spot they first remember.

These are the boxes facing South in the hot sun.

Wildlife have no respect for photographers!

Thistles on the beach. 

Was too windy to catch the bees and butterflies that were about unfortunately.

Hi @BOSSGOGG thanks for the photo the detail is fantastic can nearly touch the thistle. Pity you couldn't get a butterfly, currently looking out for them because alarmingly I have only seen about 2 so far.

@TallTrees 

I watched a programme about The Ritz Hotel last night.

They have their own bee hives on the garden roof.

They use the honey to make dishes which cost a ridiculous amount of money. They also sell the honey in jars. Nothing added and it only lasts 3 days.

The head chef said you pay for the Ritz experience ...:rofl: (Not at that price I won't!!)

I’ve had 2 leaf rollers move in and 3 of the smaller holes have been plugged with mud :slight_smile:
