Uncomplicated thoughts: Humble places

“Blessed are they that see beautiful things in humble places
Where other people see nothing…” Pissarro

Camille Pissarro (July 10, 1830 – November 13, 1903) was a French Impressionist painter. His importance resides not only in his visual contributions to Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, but also in his patriarchal standing among his colleagues, particularly Paul Cezanne and Paul Gauguin.

Uncomplicated: Honeybee swarm and a caring phone call

When precious honeybees swarm near your house or you see a swarm…get on-line…search for “bee removal and your address”…call one of the qualified bee keepers to come and safely relocate the bees.  Do not attempt to move the bees.  Do not harm the bees.

I live in Northern Virginia and here an example of a published list of bee removal sources.  I keep it handy.

Amazing photograph provided by Philip Redinger.  He took this photo of a swarm near his house…after he called the beekeeper.  The swarm was successfully relocated.
