Turtleheads and Bumblebees

Aka Jon’s delight. There’s a patch of turtlehead flowers that grows in front of what became his defacto parking spot in our driveway. When these were in bloom, Jon took great pleasure in watching the bumblebees climb laden with pollen in and out of the blossoms. I’m so happy to know and to have witnessed his perennial joy.

Here’s a video snip he took of one bee in the act. I hope you enjoy it even half as much as he did.
