Buzzing on a Buddleja

Back to the dull and wet weather today, windy too. I had an appointment with the Physio this morning, but they phoned to cancel it due to staff absence. I then was contacted by the dentist to say that there was a cancellation this morning and would I like to take it up in place of my appointment next month! An odd coincidence. All I can say is that I would rather have seen the Physio!

Did some gardening after lunch, if you can call pot weeding and potting up gardening. Not a good Blip day, so this is an EB, what I think is a Drone Fly and a Buff-tailed bumble bee on a flower of Buddleja 'Buzz Midnight'. Where do they get these names from! I only bought it as it was reduced at Homebase from £12.00 to £3.50!

I did make a couple of attempts to sit outside, but it was just too breezy, so I gave up and went back to the computer to sort more photographs!

Quote of the day: ‘If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would only have four years of life left’ . - Albert Einstein.
