I walked up to CVS and Boswell Book Store this morning.....it was after 11:00 and I wanted to get up there and back before the forecast of rain came true. I turned the corner and noticed motion down to my right. A big bumblebee was sitting atop of one of the yard's dandelions.
I grabbed my phone and quickly opened the camera app hoping to catch it before it flew away....success! The fat little guy/girl buzzed off just after I snapped his picture. It just made me smile...being in the right place at the right time.
This is a good reason to remind people that bright yellow dandelions provide a wonderful bee-attraction. Don't mow them down or pull them out! This was one busy little bee.
So glad MKE does No Mow May! Many on my block are participating this year.
