I joined the 365-day Journal challenge for 2022 and here is my ‘Day 250’.
September 7, 2022, Journal Entry:
From the other day, a bee flying toward the Lions Tail flowers that grow along a pathway in mom’s community. I edited the image with a painterly, textured style.
Lions Tail (Leonotis leonurus) is also called Lions Ear or Wild Daggas and are in the Mint family of plants. They have fuzzy orange flowers that bloom from Spring to Fall. They are native to South Africa and are a fast grower. They attract hummingbirds and butterflies, and they can grow up to 8 feet tall. The leaves have an aroma like herbs if they are pressed.
Honeybees fly and make nests of wax for storing honey. We need bees to pollinate our crops so please do not kill them. This is a western honeybee. People also use their wax for candles and lip balm. They are very important to our environment.
