We’re currently knee-deep in the process of renovating our workshop, and whilst doing so, we’ve had company!
Bumblebees have taken residence above our doorway in between the insulation and wooden beams! We first noticed just one… and then a couple more… and now there’s a whole host of them busy, busy, busy - working tirelessly all day long! We’ve watched them come and go as they return to the nest laden with pollen, and come out again to fetch more. Absolutely mesmerising and completely in awe of them!
We’ve saved a few (well - Sharon has - I’m not so brave!) by feeding them honey, and they’ve had a good explore around the workspace - checking out the flowers we’ve been making up into bouquets - they seem to approve..! We’ve had to keep the lights off - so as not to confuse them - and duck as we move in and out, but all in all - it’s been such a joy! (Even if it has prolonged us being able to board that side of the workshop for a little longer!! It’s worth it!) Save the bees!!
Lisa & Sharon
BeeKeepers in the making… (kind of..!)
