It’s good to hear from other Oregonian bee lovers! Onions are great indeed… I’ve been meaning to plant artichokes too for my bees, as when those flower they make such excellent nectaring spots :)

I too get a sense of peace taking these photos… I’ll spend hours at a time on a good day, enthralled in watching various insects’ day-to-day lives. I’m glad I can record some of these moments to share with others :)

It’s great to hear of someone else saving our buzzy little friends :) You might try rescuing bees in the pool with a leaf rather than your hands, as it’s less likely they’ll lose their sting to a leaf and they’ll be more likely to live!

That is the coolest story! I always wondered where they went at night. And you helped it by arranging the flower. That is something I would do. I always save them from the pool, and sometimes get stung, which kills the bee, but as they say, “no good deed goes unpunished.” I’ll keep trying, and thanks for the information.
