Little Things That Make Your Day

[naomi24]

Yesterday I spotted a little bee wandering slowly on my patio in the hot sunshine. He didn’t look happy so I put him in the shade on a shallow dish with some water in it. He didn’t move. Dead I thought sadly. But no. He eventually mustered up the energy to have a drink and before long went merrily on his way.

It made my day. :o)

Haha! Not in this house.

Making Naomi laugh has made my day. :-)

I laugh all the time, Tilly. Some people just don’t notice. ;o)

A pair of Blackbirds have returned to my garden after I had the grass mowed. I put an apple out for them and after breakfasting on it they bathe in the birdbath.

^ My blackbirds have gone. I always have two every spring until the end of July (they love the dried worms I put out). I love them and talk to them as they roost in the tree and I love watching them take food to their nests after having a feed and a drink themselves. It's been several days now, so I know they have moved on to wherever it is they move on to, and I always feel sad. They always make my day, every day.

I remember the first time I tried the sugar water thing on a tired looking bee in my yard. Within seconds of putting a big blob of it in front of the bee, it started drinking and at the same time buzzing away for all it was worth ! I watched in amazement after it had had it's fill and flew up and away to resume it's life. Absolutely lovely.

Awww Naomi well done! I did the same thing last year - was convinced it had died but after a couple of hours it recovered and flew off. Made my day x
