A February Bee!

Winter Bee

The weather here in Elkins Park, Pa on Sunday, February 19th drew me, everyone else and their 10 best friends out of doors. I took my kids to Morris Arboretum, knowing that I'd see some early spring flowers like this Eranthis, but what I did not expect was to see this bee!

Oh, pure joy!

It makes me happy too. Bees are always a positive thing!

this is so good, so satisfying to look at .... like a folktale, intimate and easy to take in, but, at the same time, saying ..."Come on, just look, this stuff is all around you....whatsamatter wit'you, why don'cha open your eyes...?' What I have always loved about visual art is the experience of "Oh, Yeah! I've seen that!"

I LOVE your comment, Rob. Can I quote you...maybe in a folktale-esque picture book?

Thanks, Madeleine. I bet there could have been a few buzzing around in DC that day too!
