The Bees Knees If You Please!

Summers tend to be shorter in Manitoba - so we certainly make sure to enjoy them while we can. We have had some incredibly warm (and humid) weather here in the past while - and a booming thunderstorm always seems to be just on the horizon - and yet to hit us. I have no idea how tropical climate dwellers function.

While the weather is this great, the plants always thrive and the whole of nature reacts in magical ways. I ran headlong into some sort of magic the other morning.....

I was wandering through our garden, looking at the tomatoes, carrots and zuchhini plants when I spotted something I had never seen.

It was a bee on a row marker - but that wasn't the unusual part for me.

This bee was covered - COVERED - in pollen....and he may have been a little anxious to get it off.

My camera was handy! As I was filming, I noticed I was at the wrong end of the bee....and I had been filming 'the bees knees' - too funny.

I recorded the whole thing until I was spotted.......have a peek!
