Bzzzz - I 35 km / hours they fly from flower to flower, collecting nectar, which then becomes delicious honey . The bee in the picture is a Honey bee (Apis mellifera), which found a large apple tree in blossom to collect nectar , along with his family. Bees communicate by a certain "dance" ( bidans ) that tells where nutrient-rich sources is called Pull Plants .
The image was photographed at Värmvik in Västervik.
Out at Värmvik (Victory Gärde in Västervik) is a high lime content in the soil, which means that plants Cowslips feel like a fish to water. And, now, in May bloom förfullt. In the old days they used Cowslips , among other things, to make wine (oxläggevin) and the leaves used for salad. When cowslips are in G, we know that summer is near!

Swedish: On Gränsö Nature Reserve ( little island ) plants are a plethora of exciting plants. During my last visit I saw a collection of Dianthus deltoides (Latin), and Back Pinks which is the Swedish name. They lit up as if they were radioactive , and something like that is hard to just walk past with a camera on the shoulder. This plant is a bit special , for the flower closes during the dark period of the day and during rain, and opens at the light and sunshine.

Swedish: After countless mosquito bites , I came away from the field, where I found the chicory on the photo below in the flesh, and probably without anemia. Chicory is not fully open in the picture. The field where this beautiful plant grew, I found at Hälgsjö , located one mil north of Västervik , near a huge wheat field, which will be photographed by me soon.
