The theme for Becky’s April Squares challenge is ‘top’
-
- On Top of the World – summit, crown, peak or uppermost part of something
- Under the Big Top – topping or covering (or if you’re really lucky circus)
- Room at the Top – first or highest in position
- Cherry on Top – something made even more wonderful by becoming square
- Top and Tail – or maybe you’d prefer to play around with word combinations such as top dog, top stitch, top full, top line, top fruit, top hat, top secret, top knot, top drawer and top dollar!
Topsy-Turvy
Red-tailed bumblebee (Bombus lapidarius) feeding on three-cornered leek (snow bell or onion weed). It can be found in gardens, farmland, woodland edges, hedgerows and heathland: anywhere there are flowers to feed on. It is a social bee, nesting in old burrows, or under stones.

Can you please check your spam folders as many of my comments are still disappearing, even on sites where I comment frequently. Thank you!
I don’t remember ever seeing so many bumblebees. I can only imagine that the lack of pollution is allowing more to survive.
Best wishes, Pete. x
We have had some horrid pollution here from Europe over the weekend. Gave me conjunctivitis from an allergic reaction. Everything covered in dust. I hope the rain will have washed it all away!
The blue skies here are completely clear. But we have a cold north wind, so that might be helipn.
very beautiful interpretation of tospy turvy
Thank you 🙂
That’s lovely. And I agree with beetleypete. Bumblebees are everywhere, and have been for weeks.
Not many butterflies yet though. I have only seen a couple of Whites and maybe one other that zoomed past so fast I couldn’t tell what it was.
They’re arriving …. slowly, but surely.
I hope so. I didn’t see many in my garden last year either despite specifically growing bee and butterfly flowers.
So far, so not so bad here. In fact, last year was quite good.
Not just your comments, chuck! I had to come hunting for this post, just because I knew there’d ‘bee’ one! And very nice it is 🙂 🙂
Oh dear…
We’ve had so many butterflies and moths recently. They must have all multiplied after the lovely rain in February. This is a beautiful crisp photo Jude.
Very nice! I noticed that as well regarding the comments..
That’s beautiful!
