POD - Slowing down to appreciate the little things. Photos of bees enjoying their morning wild coffee in Palmetto Bay

Another post for the series: Remember and live by Rule #32 (Zombieland):

"Enjoy the Little Things”.

I wonder if the honey that is eventually produced will have the slight taste of coffee?



Sometimes you just have to stop and look at the blooms. Not all are as dramatic as the giant flowers such as Hibiscus or various orchids. They are no less important, and are quiet nice to view for those who slow down and "enjoy the little things"

Native Bee hive or MEGA wasp nest? Fell with the palm frond and broke up on the driveway. Any assistance on identification? Pictures provided.

Here are some photos of the nest that fell and broke upon impact with the driveway. I failed to notice it for the (obvious) long time that it spent up on the tree. 


Please feel free to help in identifying whether this was a native Bee hive or MEGA wasp nest. Sad if its a native bee hive. Good riddance if its a MEGA wasp nest.

Please feel free to email your identification to eugeneflinn@bellsouth.net

Thank you.


The mango trees would have (or perhaps did provide significant pollen for the bees. Mango flavored honey and more pollinators to assist in producing more mangoes - a true win/win!
