the plums hum


The plums are in bloom, much to the delight of the bees.  There is an audible hum coming from each of the little trees and I couldn't help but stand and watch a while.


I counted six different kinds of bees, all of them busy busy busy.  Too busy to even care that I was shoving my camera lens in their little faces.  I especially liked this little orange belted bumblebee.


Isn't he sweet?  Such a diligent worker.


The plum flowers usually signal the return of the Indigo Buntings and the Orioles so I have my feeder stocked and my oranges ready.  I'd better get my hummingbird feeder ready too... We love seeing these colorful little visitors.

Thank you again to everyone who stopped by my shop update yesterday.  I'll be a diligent worker this morning mailing out packages and working on stones. 

Tomorrow I'll have a giveaway, if you'd like to stop back.
And speaking of giveaways, you'll probably want to stop on by my friend k's blog to have a chance to win a beautiful piece of textile art.

Enjoy your day, everyone.
