I spent some time this morning hanging out in my sunflower garden watching the bees. It is really cool watching bees on my sunflowers because they just get covered in pollen and look so cool.
One of my sunflowers seems to be growing a bunch of flower buds on it. I have never seen one do this before, so it is pretty cool. It will look really cool once the other buds open up.
Each morning when I come out to water the sunflowers, there are always a few bees sleeping in each one. It is really cool to see them just chillin in the flower and then they wake up and just continue their mission.
I really like when the bees get covered in pollen. It just looks so cool stuck to all the tiny hairs they have.
This little one was just chillin on the edge of a leaf, so I stuck my finger out to it and tried to get it to crawl onto me.
I was a little nervous to let it crawl on me like this because I thought it was going to sting me. But I just kept calm and didn't make big movements. I was able to get a few pictures of it before it flew off.
One of these days, I am going to get a few bee hives and try out being a beekeeper. It would be so cool to have a huge field of flowers and be able to make my own honey.
