Came across this gorgeous bee on my way home tonight. In middle of road looking pretty sorry for itself. Found a few wee flowers and it dived straight in. Lifted it to safety on a leaf and left it guzzling nectar in a garden. They really are amazing up close 🐝🌻🐝🌻

After a quiet and uppy downy Jan. Great to be out and about in Alfreton again. The Zine Library at Alfreton Library is bursting with colour and ideas and so many fabulous chats during this mornings workshop. AND I actually stopped chatting for long enough to make something πŸ’šπŸ™
