Given our overly long, cold winter, my Mayday tree started off late this year. But the tree has made up for that with a spectacular bloom. Every branch is fully laden with clusters of white flowers.
By
mid-afternoon yesterday, the entire tree filled with honeybees – hundreds of
them. Between the sweet scent of the
blossoms and the humming of the bees, walking near the tree was enough to send
me into a kind of sensory overload.
I
have posted a short video of the tree and the bees at work. If you turn your sound up, you should be able
to hear the drone of the bees.
