Don’t Worry, Bee Happy

For the last few days now, I have discovered I have a new visitor to my tiny realm, a large bumble bee.  As part of my gardening, and an effort to rescue a dying flowering plant, I now have a nice pot of some sort of flowers sitting on my deck.  To my surprise, a few days ago  I noticed this large bumble bee visiting the flowers.  I thought nothing of it, just felt interested to see that the flowers were carrying out their task of providing nectar for this insect.

However, every morning when I peer outside, I notice the same bee is back in the flowers, and as these big bumble bees live solitary lives, I guess he has made my plant part of his food gathering routine.

When I look at that bee, no worries, no fears for tomorrow, I realise that there is merit in the saying  “don’t worry, be happy”.
