The bees pleas!



It's the old which came first the chicken or the egg conundrum! I'm not sure which came first the paste-up of the hungry bee pleading for plant sustenance or the ironically flowery mural below? Did the mural artist even notice the plea! You can see in the two shots below how tiny the paste-up, to the right of the door, is. In the last shot which I took first I didn't even realise it was there! Neither were signed but it's a plea worth mentioning and one that I personally heeded, planting two new flowers over the weekend.. in the rain! The change-over to Windows 10 went remarkably smoothly I thought, although the 'Grace you're a nightmare' comments from P might be an indication that it wasn't as smooth for him :) Happy Monday, take care and stay safe..

  1. Nice mural and great eyes in seeing the small paste-up. It took me a few long minutes to even see it but finally did.

  2. A wonderful mural and important message. Bees are having a hard time to survive here too and a lot is done. Planting flowers that attract bees is a good thing!

  12. My contacts are pretty dry by this hour but I can't find the little sign in the wider shots. But what on earth is that big thing on the right side of the roof?

  20. Well I've heard the bees are in trouble world-wide and that means that we are all in trouble. Let's hope this situation can be reversed, but it will probably take some forward-looking leaders in countries other than the US as we have none of those in power at the moment.

  21. Well, we need more fields with wildflowers, that's for sure, at least in my area.

    All the best Jan

  24. Thanks for posting these pictures up! I would love to see more pictures of the street art especially when the festival for it rolls around. Some of the work should be really be made more portable. Perhaps we could invite the artists to work on storage container modules instead so that more people can enjoy their drawings!
