I guess the Ceanothus up on the mountain were too far from honey bee hives to get many visitors.<BR/><BR/>Town Mouse, It looks like this weekend will be a good one for getting outside! The wildflowers are putting on a pretty good show this spring, certainly better than last Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-68949074281741307482009-03-26T07:51:00.000-07:002009-03-26T07:51:00.000-07:00Amazing!

My husband has to get the mail because I won't go near them! Ok so I'm a bit of a wus.

Thanks for stopping by!<BR/><BR/>Karen, there were actually very few honey bees on the mountain, but I did see a number of other insects feasting on the Ceanothus, most of which I didn't recognize.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-9497724763238640352009-03-25T14:17:00.000-07:002009-03-25T14:17:00.000-07:00What an incredible array!

I have one and always look forward to it and try to remember to pass by and take at least one big whiff every day! Thanks for sharing these, it really made me want to go for a hike there someday!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-45114198165721476462009-03-25T14:11:00.000-07:002009-03-25T14:11:00.000-07:00These are beautiful.
