Its almost spring?

 Alright! Its almost spring! .................................................In a few months. Sorry. 😁But seriously, its never too early for spring. Positive thinking people!  So in the mean time here's some lovely pics I took of our blue wisteria in a fresh spring bloom, last season. It was just loaded with carpenter bumble bees with desperate males following carefully behind the females.  So needy and always fighting for the rare and in high demand girl. A total opposite of what people in China have to deal with. 

Btw if you have any loose lumber hanging around your property, it is just as much like candy to them as are the flowers. The females build little hives into the wood, carving almost perfect door ways into them and then lay their eggs. They don't even use tools. Just their little pin sized brains, teeth and diligence. Amazing! 

Just as amazing, the little community they make in those pieces of loose lumber. Some info.
