I have not seen the Bee fly here, but I thought it looked familiar from my field guide. They have such a fluffy look.<br /><br />I am starting to notice a lot more activity in the gardens now. The bees have been enjoying the early spring blooms...I think the bumblebee has made a home in one of our flower beds.ChrisNDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16197758051567332010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731821301433751344.post-64832177180747806422009-05-04T12:28:00.000+01:002009-05-04T12:28:00.000+01:00`Beautiful` Cheryl..
