Bumble Bees Have Feelings too!

Pink saturday Bee
That's what I have to keep 

telling myself every time one flies by me

 so i don't freak out like a crackhead and start running and flapping my arms.

Bees have feelings.

Wasps have feelings....

I wasn't thinking that three weeks ago when I had to "call someone" to have our wasp problem taken care of. 

 I confess my sparkly friends-

I hired a hit-man

to 

"take care of a situation".

By situation I mean "not being able to go in and out of my house or car without being bullied by a flying stinging pissed off insect."

Wasps... Hate em.

Wasps are like

 Midlife crisis Men Driving Corvettes...

You really just need to stay away from them!
Ok,

Back to WASPS-

I know, I know- all life is to be respected and even scary wasps are part of the ecosystem.

just...

not that many-

-living in every orifice of my house-

-coming into my bedroom uninvited even though all of my windows are shut-

and 

-trying to nest in my car door.

So needless to say I still felt tremendously guilty watching my gun for hire neutralize my situation.

Which brings me to Bumble bees.

I had a chance yesterday to do a good deed for a relative of those wasps yesterday

and I did!

I helped some Bumble bees.

Furry, chubby fat black and yellow bumbles, nesting in my garden.

You see, I was making this really swell circular bed

for my Pink Fairy Cottage post Here

and picked up the fountain statue from my front bed

and heard a multiple buzzing sound.

Eeew.

I knew what that meant.

I carefully went over to where my statue had been

and there was a 

bumble bee nest

newly exposed.

A funny thing happened...

Instead of freaking out, I felt bad for those 

little rolly polly chubsters.

I went and got an empty flower pot

and gave it to them.

 Heck- I was feeling so happy that I even 

gave them a handful of tree stuff to help plug the holes.

 Look at this adorable little bumble creeping around to find stuff to shore up the nest!

 So I feel like I am a little closer to becoming

stinging insect tolerant.

At least

I know my flowers are happy...

Ok, I am too!

So Have a Sparkly Day my friends!!

And a VERY
HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY
to Miss Beverly
and PINK SATURDAY!!!

Sparkly Hugs,

Tobi and the Pixies!
