I cant help taking pictures of bees. I hope you don’t mind 😉

It’s just that we don’t see enough of them these days and they might go forever one day.

In keeping with my previous posts on bees, I thought you would like to see what I spotted recently at the plot on the Poached Eggs.

As you can see one of the bees has been really busy pollinating

Here are my greens – sprouts and cabbage all caged off fro the birds. However, the slugs got one of my cauliflowers 🙁

Still, must be upbeat and try harder to kill them all, ha ha!

Here are some of my spuds coming up. They are nowhere near as ready as others, but I did put them in late as I was away on holiday. Still it means I will have potatoes later than most to enjoy.

Here is a picture of my slug trap.

As you can see it has mainly worked and a lot are dead. Long may it go on.

I took a look at my allliums at the weekend and they seem to be doing well, though I am a little disappointed about the large drop-headed variety. They are not as tall as usual and have not opened as well as usual either.

Note the spider on some of them – all good creatures are welcome in my garden.
