My husband commented on the large number of bees on my winter Honeysuckle flowers, and when I looked there were more than a dozen, two of which were Bumble bees! No butterflies yet, Marie, I must keep my eyes open.

I just hope that they are not tricked by a mild spell and will have somewhere to go to survive a cold spell which could arrive without warning.

What a great sighting! I bet you couldn't believe your eyes. Do you have any flowers in bloom now to attract it?
