The sunflowers are beginning to open this week.
The bees have already found them.
A small bee…
…and a big bee using the same flower.
Do you have sunflowers?

Sometimes when you try a new plant in your yard, you see a new insect.
That’s what happened when we tried Lesquerella. It it attracted a new bee.
It is a solitary bee, which means each female digs or builds her own nest.
In any case, I’m not sure what kind it is. If you know your bees, it would be great to find out more.
It pays to look in prickly pear flowers this time of year.
Quite a “bizzy” place.
Do you spot the beetles. too?
