Beesy hour on the mountains. Έπεσε δουλειά στις Μαδάρες.

During my walking on the mountains, I found a small stretch of flat found which was covered with some kind of thistles or wild artichokes. It was something in between. Some were in full bloom. When I got a closer look at the flowers I had a surprise.
Όπως περπάταγα στις Μαδάρες, έπεσα σ' ένα επίπεδο κομμάτι εδάφους που ήταν καλυμμένο με ένα είδος γαιδουράγκαθου.. κάτι σαν αγριοαγγινάρα. ΄Μερικά ήταν ανθισμένα. Όταν κοίταξα πιο κοντά δέστε τι είδα.

    I do love bees... maybe because I have never been attacked by one. But really, for me they are heralds of spring, and I love to see them swarming amongst the colorful blossoms.

    Such beautiful colors you've brought us here, Costas!

    They must be full of nectar. I wonder what thistle honey tastes like?

    The plants are so "rough" looking and covered with thistles. The pretty color of the bloom helps the bees to find them. What a nice surprise! Thanks Costas...

    Too many bees for me. They are my illogical fear.
