More on Monday... it's all in the detail

Have you ever looked at a bee's wings? I mean really looked? No? Me neither. To be fair they are usually buzzing at such an extreme speed they appear as little more than a blur.

My Silent Sunday post yesterday was an extreme close up shot of a bee wing (you can see it here, if you missed it...) and I am particularly proud of it. But I confess I did cheat just a teeny bit...

#TheGallery - Animals

Two years ago I bought a little fennel plant to add to my small scented herb border. Last year it grew well and provided plentiful 'leaves' to make delicious fennel tea (great for aiding digestion). This year it has taken over the entire border, providing a stunning, 7ft high display of wispy green fronds and strange, almost alien looking flowers. (Not to mention getting tangled up in the washing line and attacking anyone who walks down the garden. It may have to go before next summer...)
It has also been a haven for all things buzzy, literally humming with life!
