Lots of buzzing around my place whenever parsley is in flower. Those bees just love them, which is great for them because they want pollen.
Great for me also, because you can be sure they will help pollinate everything else.
Those pollen sacks are filling up quick!
Bees seem to wrestle more than dance when it comes to collecting pollen.
Covered in it!

I love bees too. Check out my mate Martin’s blog on: http://theurbanhive.blogspot.com.au/
He is based in Reservoir. He builds the hive in his shed and catches bees in the wild to start a new colony.
Hope you are well.
