Witnessed some local bees burrowing their way deep into the recently uncovered hand of bananas and blossoms. The sweet nectar is deep in amongst the blossom petals.
Looking around for a path to the nectar.
Ready to dig in for a tasty treat.
It doesn’t take long and the bee is out of sight.
I am looking forward to some great bananas this year and maybe…..just maybe the visitors are from my hive less than a mile from my yard.

I hope those bananas grow big and delicious and that you don’t get any cold weather that would hurt them.

The variety with the bee produced very well last year. It produces a fairly thick banana a little shorter than the Cavendish variety in the supermarkets. The texture is very creamy and really thickens up a smoothie. I am told that the manazano banana is delicious. Can’t wait.

Just wanted to stop back by to say “hello”. I hope all is well with the bees and brewing as well as the bananas.

Thank you…. I have been on a hiatus from blogging. The bees and being semi retired have overwhelmed me….. In a good way.
