Bumble on lonicera.

Bumble on lonicera.

When outside I was pleased to hear the steady hum of bees.
This lady was enjoying the winter-flowering honeysuckle which we grow just for them as it's a scruffy plant which is supposed to be scented but I can't smell a thing from this one!
You may have to stare hard to make her out - she is well camouflaged.

Klahanie, we had one in an earlier house that was very strongly scented. This is right on the edge of the path and even when I lean in the scent is hardly detectable! How lovely that your is strongly scented. I loved the smell of it.

Thanks, SBG. She was one of many out and about. It was so warm here I had to take off my jumper!
