The bees are enjoying my yard. I captured this big bumble bee visiting my butterfly bush blooms earlier. He was going from one bloom to another. There were also bees on my white butterfly bush as well. Now I am waiting on the butterflies. They will come soon.
I am so excited to see my new black butterfly bush bloom. I just planted it in April of this year! I am sharing another photo below of the bee on my white butterfly bush bloom.
People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom! ~Thich Nhat Hanh

Such beautiful photos!
Lovely photos a Bumblebee is a good omen of hope because Bumblebees are very special
Thank you Pam. I am really enjoying the garden this year. I have never heard that about bees. Great to know, I need all the hope I can get.
Beautiful photos to support the wisdom you share here.
I am so happy about this bloom. Just planted in April and look at it. 🙂 You are always so kind my friend. I have learned so much from you.
It’s understandable why the bloom has made you very happy.
They will come! The hummers are enjoying mine, and I saw another monarch yesterday.
I am patiently waiting, it is really hot today, maybe it will be the day. Lucky you!
It looks like this bee is wearing a fur coat! 🙂
That is funny. It is so hot, he needs to shed his coat. 🙂
I love the pictures of the bumble bees. They are so important. I keep trying to capture a picture of one, but sometimes they are too quick moving!
Thank you so much. I love seeing the blooms and the bees! You have to stand still until they get used to you, then move slowly.
When we think negatively everything turns its head down. We need to be positive to feel good. The photo is great.
You are right and we have to work on pushing the negativity out! Thank you.
Great capture!
Always try to balance the negativity is a message I have pushed for years. You are so right, it is critical to make sure there is positive messaging!
When I was a teacher we used to have a rule. If you have to say something negative to a child you also have to make sure you give them positive things. It is easier to build on positive than negative!!!!
Thanks Doc. Of course I work on positive vs negative all the time. Things happen out of your control and it is just always a work in progress.
It is a work in progress I agree!
Beautiful image , Thank you for sharing
Thank you very much for your kind comment.
Lovely pictures as always.
Thank you very much for your kind comment Dawn.
Love the photo, and hope is what to always cling onto.
Thank you very much LaJenna for your kind comment. So true.
Just saw a hummingbird on the blooms. I hope he sticks around when I go out with the camera.
Not sure why my comments seem to post in the wrong place sometimes.
People really think too negatively. Life would be much nicer with different thinking.
Yes and I used to be one of those. I work on it every day. Thank you my friend.
I remind myself that the glass is half full, not half empty. That helps.
I was also among them. I slowly managed to change my thinking.
Beautiful pictures. Do you get any hummingbirds on these flowers?
Thanks, no hummingbirds yet but I will get them eventually.
Hummingbirds are so fast, I kind of just have to go out and sit and wait on them. It has been too hot to do that. I have try to catch them early in the morning.
Yes, the weather in the South has been horrible for so early in the season. We went down to the Keys the first time in 1972; and the weather was in the 100s…and this was in April! Maybe we’re going to have a year like that. I hope not.
We had triple digits not too long ago. Crazy records are being broken.
Lovely captured, positivity is the best message dear Carol.
Thank you very much! I try each day to be positive in some small way.
Have a wonderful evening Hina.
Very beautiful picture of flowers and bees, dear friend
Thank you, I enjoy my garden dear Lado.
And I appreciate your compliment. I took several photos, this was my favorite.
Oh wow, what timing capture!!
The bee is collecting nectar>?
Yes he was collecting nectar, for about 10 minutes I watched him!
Wishing you a great rest of the day!
Thank you, Carol, same to you 🙂
Oh how I wish I could make things grow. I love to see them when others grow them.
I am telling you it is easy to do. Dig a hole, put the plant in, water it and tah-dah!
I would help you if we lived closer. 🙂
