STOPS ALONG THE WAY

SPRING BONUS

by 23 Comments

In early spring, whenever I see the first of something it’s cause to smile. I have seen a few trout lilies this season but this was the first bee I’ve spotted. Although a lot of the cultivated flowers are in bloom, the wildflowers are slow to appear as are insects. It made the bee especially nice to see.

    You must be glad to see the end of the snow! Glad the spring and bees have found you.

    It’s such a thrill to see the return of living things once again…the birds, the bees, the blooms…I don’t know what will happen when spring no longer holds these wonders.

    I miss the hum of bees in the cold months and it is a joy to see them again in spring. Currently, our quince hedge is in full bloom and it is buzzing with bumblebees and our first hummingbirds – such a joyful reunion!
