Bees are coming back


I noticed yesterday while walking in the garden many bees buzzing around my flowers. I am happy to see them back; this past year has been very difficult for bees in our area.
Many old timers blamed the poor harvest of avocados and mangos this year on the low number of bees.

My goal in the garden is to plant as many butterflies and bee friendly plants as I can. I am glad to see that is working.
