Bees in my Garden - wild and domesticated!
I'm happy to report that I have many bees in my garden, both domesticated and wild. They love the rosemary bush. The top picture shows a bee at around 4 o'clock. The bottom one shows a bee at 12o'clock, at the dip; this one is very fuzzy.
Please don't use pesticides and snail killer in your garden because they harm bees and other animals!
