Last year the honey and I planted two dwarf apple trees. We even had enough of an apple harvest for a pie. Mmmmmm Pie. Pie. 1.5 Pie. Pie is Good! Want Pie Now... PIE!!!
Ah, a simpler time.
Wankers.

Anyhoo, so we planted some stuffs last year. More on the other stuff later as news arises.
The trees are blossoming like crazy this year. Absolutely beautiful! :D Yesterday I took a few photos of them in all their spring glory. (Oh and I got a new camera a few weeks ago. We are in love and I plan to have it's camera babies. It will be an odd life but I'm sure we will be very happy together. :p )
Full to bursting with blossomy goodness.
Check out this close up.
Just then I spotted a garden visitor.
It's a wonderful little honey bee!! YAY!! I love Honey bees. The honey and I have been talking about doing some backyard beekeeping for awhile now and I'm thinking next year after we do some more prep to the backyard we will be ready. :D
Here's a close up of the little guy. Check out his pollen laden knees. Whoaza!
When he flew away he kinda wobbled. I'm wondering if it was his heavy load or if he was drunk on pollen. *L*
Thanks to his efforts I hope we have lots of yummy apples this autumn.
Pie! :D
Wonderful photos!
Now I want pie. /sigh

Love your photos! I too adore bees. The pollen on their legs look like saddle bags you see on bikes. What variety are your dwarf apples?

Beautiful photos! I'd wanna have camera babies with your new camera, too! Go for it! LOL!

Apple blossoms are so beautiful. Apple blossoms with bees are even better!
Wishing you tons of pie...
