Butterflies & Bees

I have had so many butterflies in the garden this summer, this morning the Buddleja had 21, the Sedum had 8 and there were 7 or more on the walls of the house, they are here all day. The Echinacea has had as many as 3 bees on each flower, this hads happened every day throught the summer.

  • This year seems to be a good year for butterflies and bees ,maybe its the hot weather more of a summer than of late.Certainely out on the Mendips and in somerset countryside there has been abundance of butterflies.lets hope it s a good sign for the re-turn of mass butterflies.image
