There were dozens of bees on the lavender today, but they were so busy I only managed to snap two together....
I love watching them, with their trouser pockets full of yellow pollen.

AlaMich Nice crop of lavender you have there! Do you dry it and use it for anything? If you‘re a baker, I can tell you that lavender shortbread is wonderful, as are lemon-lavender scones. (edited) 5y

squirrelbrain @AlaMich - I have two like that (they‘re in brick pillars) and one enormous one that has gone absolutely mad this year! I‘ve never tried drying it, I really should. The shortbread and scones both sound delish 😋❤️ 5y
