|
I was walking around my flower bed and taking pictures and I looked down and to my surprise a bee was stuck inside of a daylily....He could not climb out of the inside of the flower...and it must not of been enough room to fly out...I am not sure..I watched for a minute or two and decided to tip the flower to the side so the bee could climb out. He climbed out and rested for a minute and then took off..Hopefully he will remember me and not sting me when I am in my garden.

Poor bee, I'm glad you helped it. Your daylily is beautiful.

I'm glad you spotted the bee that was in trouble Sherry and managed to get piccies for us too. What a lovely delicate colour your daylily is.

I saved a dragonfly today too...he was tangled in a web by the flowers. I always try to take the webs down but the spiders are busy at night.

Nice save Sherry and great pics (very pretty lily) in the process. I love to watch the bees, they really are so cool. Bravo to you, pat yourself on the back for that one.
