I have a tupelo gum tree in my back yard. One day I was outside cleaning my grill, and the sound of bees buzzing around that tree was unnerving. It only has these little tiny green buds for flowers. I saw literally hundreds of bees buzzing around that tree. I would say thousands, but I don’t want to exaggerate. But it was the noise they made that was amazing.
Did you all know bees will work only one type of plant or tree at a time? Whatever is the most generous plant in bloom at the moment gets the bee's attention. Natural selection at it's finest.
