Foto Friday . . .Don't worry

. . . {honey}, bee happy!

I did give you fair warning that you would most likely see more of these....

Bees...

To others it may just be a bee;

but I see a miraculous creature, with such incredible mastery and evidence of an awesome God.

And everyday they leave the hive on a mission, for the survival of each other.

Just. imagine. that.

I found this to be fascinating (source):

A forager bees job is to find a source of nectar and go back to the hive and inform

the other bees. When she gets back to the hive she lets the others taste a bit of the nectar

for it's quality. She then dances in the direction of the source of nectar and the position is explained

according to the position of the sun. But, the sun is continually moving and every four minutes the sun

moves one degree to the west. Now this is what blows my mind....the bees are able to take into account 

the suns movement and by the amount of vibrations the forager bee makes they can determine the distance

to the source and store just enough food for the journey there! 

 

"Unique among all God's creatures, only the honey bee improves the environment

and preys not on any other species."

- Royden Brown

I don't remember what kind of plant this was . . .

 . . . but check out the lavender pollen!

 Don't you think they look good in pink?!

The theme this week for P52 is "eyes" of March - and what says Spring in March better than

the eyes of a bee getting drunk on nectar.

{P52 project}

Theirs isn't an adventure about where it ends, but the journey of now.

A sense of direction....and a purpose for survival....theirs AND ours.

God shows me patience through nature behind my lens . . . and I'm listening with my eyes.

Wishing you a biscuit and honey filled kind of weekend!

Love, Kim
