Busy Bees


We have been enjoying some fine Indian Summer weather this week and it has allowed us to be busy, busy, busy outside. The leaves are almost all down now, so soon the raking will begin. But first, the deck must be cleaned and then coated with the sealer and it has been the perfect week to do it.

We are not the only busy ones outside. My late blooming mum (now pretty much the only flowers left) have attracted quite a bevy of bees the last few days. I have to keep a close eye on Lillian as she closely examines this plant every time she goes by it. She sees those bees and would like to grab them!



And look, isn't Lillian so helpful. Here she is trying to shake the leaves off the lilac.


And then she is ready to sweep up the leaves.


And finally, she was ready to set these seeds free as only a child can. Or maybe she is going to eat them.
