Our Grand Tour of Scotland: 2010 - Part 5: Bees and Honey!

Ok, Bees are a bear's favourite insect because they produce HONEY!  Yummy, scrummy honey!  Well, Bev's dad pointed out that the lavendar bush outside their house was full of bees, and he was right - we bears spent ages watching them, licking our lips and following them to find the honey.

Bev wasn't interested in the honey but she was interested in photographing the bees, and she did remarkably well:






















This is a cute and furry little bee on the lavendar.  She also caught these cuties flying around the lavendar:

















And here is her quintessential Scottish photograph of a bee - on a thistle:


















So, while we think Bev's photographs of the bees are great, we prefer the sticky, sweet honey that these little guys produce - if we had thumbs, we'd put them up to the bees, our favourite insects!
