#summer
▫Wet Wet Wet▫
A member of the 🐝Team Sintti Air Force🐝 after falling in to a deep water bowl... not at all round and fluffy looking bumblebee when its soaked in water ! Luckily, I was around to give this little guy a helping hand and he climbed on my finger and to safety.
Since I set up a honey water bar for them, these incidents have fortunately almost stopped - only a few per week now.
I have discovered an interesting thing about bumblebees; they actually shake themselves dry, much like a cat or a dog would do. No sound, not even quite visible, but you can feel it in your hand and it´s an absolutely fantastic sensation !!! Very hard to describe, but imagine a phone on vibrate against your skin - something like that, only milder.
The only thing that´s slightly annoying (yet funny too) is that these guys tend to use my arms as a drying platform. Almost every time this happens they start prancing up and down my arm without any intention to fly away.*.. silly little things ! 😊
Might have something to do with body warmth, I really don´t know. Still, it´s kinda cool.
*Maybe they just adore my freckles ! 🤣🤣🤣

A stroll around the back #garden. My spouse is the person responsible for most of this bounty.
The #tomatoes have appreciated the hot conditions of the #summer and are bearing #flowers and #fruit.
#Allium #flowers appear in a variety of #colours and cluster sizes.
#Strawberries have already produced #fruit but are still #flowering too.
Meanwhile, it is too early for the #pumpkin patch to produce #squashes yet but the flowers are also edible. We've had just a few in dishes. You can also see #dill flowers here and as the subject in the subsequent #photograph.
There are a few ornamental flowers too which also help to attract #pollinators.
The #grapes are also ripening on the #vine and we've already enjoyed some of the #VineLeaves for dinner.
The #RunnerBeans continues to #flower even though it has borne #fruit.
The #apples are getting bigger too.
Finally, the #lettuce plants are growing tall and producing seeds for next year.
