What is this "sun"?
 
No the two hives were very busy that shrub was visited by honey bees all morning and later bumble bees. The tea pots are a feature in the garden. It was nice to c the bees foraging in february. Yes it was the sun a big yellow thing in the sky!!!
 
It was a lovely day today and I noticed a few bees on winter flowering heather, it felt quite like spring. Love the tea pots
 
I had bees on the winter flowering honeysuckle (smells so good too), water collecting on moss and cleansing flights yesterday. Good to hear the buzzing.

As soon as the sun hit it, mine were on the daphne......
