I went outside into my garden and looked at all my lavender (it has self-set everywhere, as a "weed" is wanton to do, and I've dug it up and planted it in some form of order) - there's plenty of flowers and yet not a bee to be seen. It was really fucking depressing.
I’ve noticed the same this year, where are all the bees. So sad.
I've got quite a few bees around my place - I was watching them in my nasturtiums yesterday, they seem to like them as much as I do.
Oh nice! Maybe I need to plant even more bee-friendly stuff.
