Suddenly, the forest of green stalks is starting to bloom.
The catastrophic observation you can make in this image is that there are no pollinating insects at all this year. In spite of the relentless efforts of our village community, we are losing the battle against the Asian hornet invasion, which predates our honey bees.
Lovely shot, so sorry to hear about those bees, just read in the newspaper yesterday that beeswarms were doing better than last year, alas not in your village...
