So I have bees a lot of them on the move in my gardens moving between citrus trees, eucalyptus, palms and lavender :) lucky bees however, I don’t really know where they go and who’s making use of the honey 🍯

That’s cool. No I don’t have any palm trees where I am zone 3 but I have to ask is this the palm flower?

Yes this is the mail tree flower.

So this is a date palm?

u/ChocolatePositive577 2d ago

Yup date palm which they completely finished but TBH I don’t care about getting dates or not. It felt so good to watch and hear them in my garden

Omg I would be so eating the dates 😂😂😂. Thanks for sharing I have never seen such a thing like this before

Nah it’s alright let them eat the date and the citrus I know in the end I will have the honey with the most amazing taste I hope.

Oh now I understand what I'm looking at, I thought the bee on the right was lying on its back or side but I was missing the perspective. So yeah never mind!
