Bees and Drinking Water


It's always interesting to see where the bees get their water.

This is just an old dog bowl in the garden - it's pretty nasty but the bees love to drink the water.





This is also in the garden - it's a long piece of bamboo - makes a nice trough for water and the bees don't mind that it's a little dirty.
I try to keep some clean water in several places around the yard - they're still drinking from the goldfish pond too. Another 80 degree day - just wonderful!
