I spent a bit of time in the garden this afternoon, once the rain had stopped and the sun came out.
The bees were extremely busy on this plant, the flowers are so tiny and hardly open but they must be attractive to the bees.
I don't know very much about bees, my lovely husband was reading something about tree bees recently and thought this might be one. It's an invasive species to the UK but they're good pollinators so they're very welcome.
I'm amazed by what I've found out about wildlife so far this month, especially by what can be found just outside the back door.
