IF = Instinct























Interesting bee instinct...
If bees see another group of rival bees hanging around a particular flower, they will go check it out later...

seems like a human trait as well, shoulderpads anyone?

Thank you for your nice comments on my blog. Your bees are pretty. I've never been very good at collage myself, but I admire those of you who are!

I love the delicacy and sheerness of the textures in this piece. I am adding you to my blog roll right this minute. You are an artist of extroidinary talent and imagination.

I didn't know that about bees. My overgrown Thyme plants attract gazillions of bees. They must all be friends because they're right in there at the flowers. (No apparent colony collapse disorder here!! Thank goodness.) Appreciate your comment on grandma with the towel!
