JUL 18 : 199/365

2018-07-19.web

How blest to sit in the fragrant shade,
In the hush of a summer noon,
To watch the bees at their happy task,
And listen their drowsy tune…

~Elizabeth Anne Chase Akers Allen

bee·line
ˈbēlīn/
noun
  1. a straight line between two places.

 

Apparently Mr. Webster never actually watched a bee fly… or tried to photograph one.  Straight is definitely not a word I would use to describe their flight patterns.

Charming, but fidgety little creatures, aren’t they?
