      Couldn't share first place with a nicer person!!! Congrats Angie -a well spotted photo opportunity.
      Thanks to all who liked my two winning pix. :wub2:

      The story behind the bee photo - Four year old grand daughter was on the lawn and let out a scream when a bee landed on her flower patterned sandal ( she's normally not scared of them) so I took off her sandal with bee on it and we decided the bee was looking for flowers. It was fairly lethargic and Heidi watched as I gently stroked it and she then decided to get some flowers so it could find sone nectar. I carried it to the patio table and we both watched it for ages as it dipped its long tongue in different flowers that Heidi picked.
      The bee was obviously weak and and cold so later I mixed up a sugar solution and put the bee and sugar in the green house over night and in the morning it had revived and flew out looking fit and well.
