I have been observing 4 bumblebees making love to my lavender and
oregano blossoms. It's way too hot her for me to think about dragging
out an OM with macro equipment, but now I feel shamed and may do so
tonight.
I feel bad that I'm soon going to cutting off the blossoms of the
lavender to encourage more vegetative growth; I guess the bees will have
to concentrate on other blossoms around the yard.
