Fuzzy Wuzzy,
was a bee!
The bees are buzzin,
cuz The Holler’s bloomin…..
Furbees favor passion flowers,
and lavender.
But this buggy-buzzer likes blooming blue sage!
Soon we can eat the passion fruit too!
Cheers to you from the Holler furbees, flowers & fruit~

Beautiful set of photos.
Why thanks so much! Most motivating~
Gorgeous photos of beautiful flowers and bees.
You are such a good bloggin buddy Timothy!
Beautiful Spring photos! Thanks for sharing.
March 25th?? Are you in Europe? Beautiful flowers!
Hard to believe we live on the same continent I know! Hope your spring comes very soon John~
Enlighten me. I do stupid very easy. 🙂 These comments on my PC and WordPress say March 25 between 1:45am and 2:01am. You’d have to be in Greenland for that to be accurate and still on the same continent. What am I not seeing?
Hmm. It’s UTC time. How did that happen?
your blog must be set to UTC. You are SO mysterious!!
Laughing, Not mysterious at all. Greenwich Mean Time is constant so it orients me when moving through big time changes while traveling. Part of my brain remains in a universal time even while home because I am sensitive to time change and this minimizes it. You are quite clever to have noticed it and figured it out.
I’ve never seen a passion fruit flower before…wow..I been missin out!!! love your photos…amazing visual essay of beauty and wonder..
Awwwww, so kind and makes me so glad I posted! Thank you~
I especially like how you caught the bee’s eyes!
They are just the bees knees aren’t they! My hubby’s gonna razz me for this one! The eyes really are remarkable aren’t they! And they have built in shades! 😎
Fantastic!
Matilda would be so at home here Bette! <3
Beautiful job!!
So kind & most appreciated!
Stunning photos…I particularly like the lavender and sage ones.
They are such beautiful and wonderfully scented flowers. So pleased you liked them~

Love the pics, Cindy. Didn’t know that Passion Flowers had a fruit. The ones I’ve seen around here don’t. I envy you your springtime. We just got another 4in of snow. The crocus, tulips, hyacinths, and daffodils dont know what to think. I had just taken the styrofoam covers off the roses too. Hope all will survive this cold snap. The rest of this week and early next is only supposed to be in upper 30s daytime and low 20s at night.
“Spring will be a little late this year”. Hugs, Cuz…….. 🙂
Listen cuz we need to talk. We could start a joint operation here. My pics, your prose! We could call it Barton & Barton: Pics & Prose! Eeeks about the snow, hard for me to even hear it so I know how much it is grating on you! So sorry cuz~
Hahahaha !!! …and how are we gonna work this out ??? A whole new blog ?????
Hmmmmm, that does uncomfortably like work! 😉 😉
Love the clarity and seeing the beautiful bee going about its day. Lavender, can smell it….lovely
I left that pic out by mistake and just stuck it back in, so I am so glad you liked it! <3
In your previous post you showed us how civil the Holler is. Now we see passion. Next there will be drama. The Holler has it all. (Is it almost Wagnerian? 😀 ) Gorgeous.
You said the Wagner word! Now Jim will be blasting the Ring Cycle saying you requested it! Do you know I actually sat through the entire cycle? Some 18 hours of opera over several days? I hope the only drama we get here is Gotterdammerung on the stereo! Drama I do not like! Cheers to you Anne. I just left you a message on your post~
You are noble. I couldn’t sit through 18 hours. A little here and there is enough for me. Thanks for your kindly message which I have just read. Not to be a downer but perhaps Jim would like to play Gotterdammerung in memory of the two Wagnerian singers who died in the Germanwings plane crash. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/oleg-bryjak-maria-rader-die-germanwings-plane-crash-article-1.2161008
Oh no! So horrible. All those people lost. All the families grieving. We admire both the opera singers greatly.Such very sad news.
Beautiful, gorgeous, stunning, I think all the best adjectives have been used already so I’ll repeat them. 🙂
Laughing, awwwww so nice and so motivating to keep on clicking~
Perfection!
Merci beaucoup! <3
You are very welcome! <3
Simply amazing, dear Cindy <3 🙂
Mil grazi & cheers~
Just unBEElievable! (͠❀‿❀͠)
Seeing is BEElieving! :star: :star:
Oh, my gosh, such beauties. !
Great you hear from you my friend and thank you!
BEEautiful! Thought I’d keep what was going on in the above comments going. Seriously though, there’s nothing quite like that purple against the paler parts of the passion flower petals. It’s so wonderful that we have have these exotic beauties out here in California, isn’t it? 🙂
Yes it is! Our own personal exotics! Bee well Lyynn~ 😉
Beautiful pictures, well taken.
xxx Huge Hugs xxx
So glad you think so & cheers to you~
Brilliant photos… just love the first and last… magnificent…
I am honored my friend! Many thanks~
Cindy, gorgeous pictures. Thank you for sharing. Hugs! Veraiconica
Hugs back to you my kind Veraiconica~ <3
Ms Cindy, beautiful pictures and a cute little poem. The only bad part about bee’s though is their stingers, they will pop you on your fingers, nose, and toes, if you let them.
I have been stung, I think twice in my life, but considering how close I nose around them, this is really quite infrequent. They like people best when they are still I think~
Oh to smell that lavender! Incredible shots, Cindy 🙂
So pleased you enjoyed & cheers to you Jo!
Thank you for posting these beautiful flowers,Cindy.
Thank you more for appreciating them Ranu~
Bee is almost as big as the flower! hugz Lisa and Bear
Yes, hadn’t thought of that, but those lavender heads are pretty compact~
What a delight that must be when everything just blooms. It is more gradual over here. I remedy that by hibernating. 😀 😀
Hibernation sounds nice, fire. tea, English cottage all that peacefulness. We are crossing the Atlantic by boat and spending one day in Southampton, before catching the flight to Johannsberg. We just booked a tour of Windsor which I know is such a touristy thing to do but I don’t care. I’ve never been in any of QE2’s palaces and I am so looking forward to it. I hope she doesn’t decide to visit on the Saturday we are there or it will close. Maybe I should send her an email politely requesting she refrain? We return after roughing it in Kruger and spend a week or so. 😉 I will be photographing English flowers right and left! 😉
Here’s hoping you have a good trip. I’m sure the queen will keep away for your visit. I’ve just told her you eat corgis. 😀

Such tactile and beautiful shapes Cindy!
Flowers are like little towns unto themselves when looked at closely!
Lovely collection of words flowers and bees <3 <3 <3
Well cheers to you Hanna and most appreciative! <3 <3 <3
Your photos are so bright, so sunny, so cheerful! Bravo! 🙂
Wunderschöne Blüten ich wünsche dir einen schönen Mittwoch liebe Grüße und Umarmung Gislinde
SuBe Gislinde! Du bist so ein guter Freund Blogging. Ein Hoch auf Sie und danken Ihnen~<3 <3
Wow Cindy these are amazing images, not to mention beautiful and awesome just how they seem to jump out at you. 🙂
Awwwww, so kind and so motivating! Cheers & thank you my friend~
Oh, the sweetness of spring! We had some warmish days and the bees came out of their winter hives but couldn’t find anything blooming, so they hovered around the compost heap with its bright colors of orange peel. I hope they found a bit of sugar nourishment there.
Oh that is sad. You know they do drink out of humming bird feeders, if you accidently let some sugar water spill out they may well find it. They need some help from us these days~
I’ll try that as soon as I get home….
Let me know if it works……Once the flowers bloom, they’ll switch over.
Very uplifting. I keep hoping every morning to pull up the blinds to see some evidence of Spring — today there was snow and bunny poo out my window. Thanks for sharing so much beauty with us northerners — we need the hope that Spring will come — eventually. 😀
I am so sorry about this endless winter you are experiencing. It must be getting on your nth nerve. Those flowers are building up their passion under the snow though, ready to burst forth with attitude to proclaim that spring has sprung! I am always amazed at the special beauty of blooms in places where the winter is especially harsh! Alaska and Patagonia have the most amazing spring blooms~
That is one of the great things about Spring here. It seems in one day you look about and there has been an explosion of color and buds and green all at once. Luckily until that happens, I have your beautiful photography to life my spirits. <3
What beautiful flowers, Cindy. What are they? And it’s good to see healthy bees going about their business of pollinating and making honey.
The flowers are Lavender, Passion flower and Blue Sage, and yes we have quite a healthy populations of buzzing bees thank God! Love ’em all~
It’s heartwarming to see the bees. That’s had such devastation over the last few years. Our Spring is struggling to appear, but I did see some bees, which gives me hope.
I meant: They’ve had. Oh, the woes of autocorrect. Enjoy your week.
I love typos. I’ts a requirement for me, since I make so many of them! 😉 I can’t imagine what it would be like not to have swarms of bees. It am so glad you saw some spring bees. What a hopeful sign!
Those flowers with the squiggles are amazing!!!
They are engineering marvels aren’t they! They fascinate me~
They really are.
Passionflowers are exotic and beautiful! Love your captures, Cindy! Always happy to see bees, beautiful details, especially the first one! 🙂
Passion Flowers are great for photos aren’t they! They have so much detail. This is the first time I saw the interior dots! Bees are so pretty close up~
I’ve heard of passionfruit but never tried it. In fact, I had no idea it grew like that! Thanks for educating me this morning. You’ve got some great shots here, Cindy — you must not have worn perfume or those furrbees would have been on you instead of these lavender beauties, ha!
The scent of the flowers is intoxicating and the bees completely ignore me! They are on a nectar high!
Beautiful
How kind! Thank you~
