You may notice that the title of the post is followed by the Roman numeral II. That means that this is similar to an earlier post.

I am running late with my post tonight as I have been doing some genealogy research. I found a few interesting connections this evening that I wanted to follow up 🙂

Look for an update to my Gallup Poll Connection posts in the future.

Oh, back to the current subject.

This picture comes from an old post titled: Flowers at the Zoo

I visited the Toronto Zoo last year and took some wonderful flower pictures along with all the animals. Here we get both of them.

Here we have little bees exploring a thistle. This picture is from a post I wrote a few months ago titled: What a Wednesday

The thistle is either a Spear Thistle or a California Thistle. I am still not sure which one it is.

Here we have a bee that is harvesting pollen from a group of daisies. I took this picture in Sydney, Australia. The picture was used in a post called Sydney Daisies. There is also a post called Sydney Daisies II. Both of them have additional pictures of colorful daisies.

The last picture is one that I took on my most recent trip to China. This is the third time I have used this picture in a post, but it is rapidly becoming one of my favorite pictures. I just love the colors of the flowers and the little bee in the center of one of the blooms.

The picture was used before in these two posts: West Lake and Chinese Flowers

I hope that you enjoyed these bees and blossoms.
