The scent of lavender in the warm air and busy bumblebees that never seem to rest.
Summer captured in a single frame – purple waves of flowers and the gentle hum that becomes nature’s perfect soundtrack.

These are the moments when the world slows down – and we slow down with it.

Bees in lavender
2026-02-10
One of my favorite places in summer.
This is where I grow my vegetables and herbs, where my home stands.
A place to linger, to do nothing at all.
Watching nature, watching plants grow,
following the bees as they move from flower to flower. I miss it already...

Working in the greenhouse today and had a massive chonky boi of a visitor
For reference the campanula flower it's on is about one inch across

“Buzzing Harmony: Exploring the World Inside a Bee Hive”

"Where the hive hums with teamwork, nature's symphony comes alive. 🐝🍯 " In the heart of a bee hive, a bustling community thrives. Each member plays a crucial role in maintaining the hive's delicate balance. Worker bees diligently gather nectar, while others construct intricate hexagonal cells to house their precious honey. The queen bee, a symbol of unity, reigns as the central figure, ensuring the…

Went to a mosaic trail today, which Bee was really into - much more than I was expecting! She did want to be carried for the last bit, though.

Also came across this now-cycle-path on a completely otherwise closed road. Lovely post-apocalypse vibes. (Also lovely blackberries!)

A paddleboard day! Today Bee and I focused on doing a litter-pick, and ended up with an entire bag of rubbish for the stretch down to the nearest lock and back. #LoveYourRiver #BeeLife

Bee was given a face-painting set for her birthday by one of her friends! She studied the booklet of examples carefully, and decided to go for a scary red dinosaur. All her own work! #NailedIt

#BeeLife #parenting

Toddler covered all over in enthusiastically applied red face paint, making a roaring face.

Bee: Me not had my gummy [multi-vitamin] yet today!

My wife and I in unison: Yes you ha--

*we look at each other*

Ellie: Bee, did you tell your other mummy you hadn't had your gummy yet?

Bee (very guiltily): NooooOOOOooo...

#BeeLife #parenting

Bee choose my outfit today, it's made me giggle every time I looked in a mirror 😆🐉

I asked if she wanted to wear her dress with these dragons on too, and she looked at me with all of her three-year-old dignity like I was being completely ridiculous. "No. 🧐"

(It's a great print though! I definitely needed to make both a t-shirt and culottes in it)

Me: I think you're going up to bed now. Goodnight, Bee!

Bee: Goodnight stickers!

Me: Do I get a goodnight, as well as your stickers?

Bee: No.

Ellie: Well, I'm going to say goodnight to Mummy. Goodnight, Mummy!

Bee: GOODNIGHT, STICKERS!

My toddler is currently playing a game where she is a frog and hides in a shopping bag while my wife laments that she's a lonely princess with no friends. Then the frog hops out, to very great delight, and then gets kissed to turn into another princess to be friends.

I say "currently", but I mean more like "over and over in a loop".

#BeeLife #parenting

Toddler, extremely cheerfully, just now: "Me can poke holes in you jumper?"

Just got back from a lovely family weekend, most of which I spent frantically knitting. I'm very poor at time management, granted, but also did everyone HAVE to get married in the same month? 😂

Last photo: Bee taking pictures in the taxi home.
