When nature speaks: Two gorgeous beings

A double one

I have these beautiful big poppies, red oriental poppies. I have had some for years. The thing is, I'm not the only one loving them.

Buzzing somewhere

I walk out and I hear a strange, buzzing sound. I look around, what can it be? Now I follow the sound and it takes me to one of the poppies. There is a bumble bee, in awe, inside one of this big, beautiful - and very tasty - flower.

The bumble bee goes round and round the middle and as the flower is so big it kind of works as a speaker, the sound becomes louder. Wonderful and I can really hear how yummy that is!!!

The sound of joy

I'm trying to get the video to work - but in the meantime, please enjoy this photo and listen to the buzzing from the bumblebee. It is a happy tune!

Bumblebees keep coming my way. Sometimes just for the flowers and they tell me to get lost as I am in the way - usually I am just passing my big flowering bush. Then they also come near me when they are struggling. For a while it was when my cat Nelly was chasing them, catching them and trying to eat them. I used to save the bumblebee he has caught and told him to leave them alone, as we need them. Then one day Nelly must have caught a wasp instead and was stung in the process. After that he leaves the bumblebees alone too.

Sometimes I have come across bumblebees as they were dying. They have needed a help to find somewhere to lie to rest, to find their last place to rest. I have also had bumblebees having stayed on my hand for a very long time. I assumed it was because they needed help, and as I do Reiki they were feeling that. At least that is what I think. After a while they have been able to fly again, or I have put them on a flower to eat and after sometime they have felt okay enough to fly away.
And here is my hippie bumblebee - Hippie Humla in Swedish.
