Bees and Butterflies

We went out to our local arboretum yesterday, and I wanted to share a couple of pictures. The bees and butterflies were everywhere!

So jealous of the buttonbush: the deer nibble mine, i don't know if i'll see blooms ever.

I know what you mean. I lose a lot of blossoms to deer in my yard. The arboretum is huge, though, and they have tall fences to keep the deer out of the garden areas while allowing them to roam freely through the woods and uncultivated fields on the property.
