The weather this year has been most unusual, and the natural world isn't sure what to make of it.

This industrious bumblebee is feeding on a profusion of Aster flowers - normally a late blooming flower, but not usually quite this late.

Very spring indeed with this wonderful closeup. We see in our garden and on our local walks trees and flowers blooming as in early summer. The world is confused as are we.

Best Wishes. Herb
