Two second video hoping to share the sight and sound of many bees that swarm my palm flowers. 

 

I am including a photo in case you can’t see the brief video. 

The video is short because I needed to remove the screen to take the video and stick my hands with my phone camera not far from the flowers outside my bedroom window. 

Yes I am lucky to have such a view!

Potentially bees who did not care for the intrusion could have at the least entered my house.

I do get volunteer seedlings but only a small percentage are variegated. 

I hear of real problems with loss of bee populations so am happy to see no such issues on my farm at this moment.

That’s amazing. I have walked under palms with inflorescence and can hear the buz  several feet above , only to look up at the flurry of activity. It seems they really like Phoenix and Syagrus. Thankfully ignoring my wife and I . Even though she has a sever allergy ( a sting means a trip to the hospital) she has learned to remain calm and the bees just ignore us. Harry
