Garden Activity

The wildflower strip is buzzing with activity. All sorts of bees are enjoying the Echinacea purpurea. 

The milkweed flowers have drooped and seed pods are beginning to form. Bright orange milkweed beetles and milkweed bugs are busy. 

I spotted a green sweat bee drinking nectar from an Evening Primrose.

Native bees plants love native flowers!
The Echinacea seems to be the flower of choice!
