This is a huge bush type tree - about 5 metres tall and at the moment covered in tiny flowers. The bees are constantly busy and you can hear the hum as you walk past!
Near the tip of this branch of flowers, I was reminded of the TV programme, 'Keeping up Appearances' where Hyacinth Bucket (Bouquet) picks up a flower at the run in of the programme, to smell it. She looks down and there is a green worm which sends her cross-eyed. Patricia Routledge is just perfect in this character.
My green worm was not noticed until I downloaded this picture! Can you see it?
He blends in quite well, just as he is supposed to do. I have found spiders, ants, etc. on my flower photos. Always a fun surprise. This is a lovely shot.
Yes, I spotted the green worm who camouflaged himself quite well. Beautiful colors and detail. Very pretty! We have a large red powder puff bush that is always loaded with bees, too. Consequently it's not very well-trimmed ;-)
Yes I thought he looks a bit different and is larger than the rest of the little green things sticking out. never heard of a humming flower bush, but then we don't have that many bees around. definitely looks similar to a lilac bush.
What a pretty shot. I see the worm! I also know the show Keeping Up Appearances and Hyacinth is too funny. You are so right that the actress is perfect for that role. I love watching the reruns when they are on.
