The Butterfly Weed is now in bloom, and the bees have found it. Asclepias tuberosa L. is a relative of Milkweed as can bee seen comparing the flowers of the two shown below.
Despite working in IT, I prefer spending my time outdoors. I enjoy beekeeping, hiking, camping, and about anything else I can do outside. A Do-It-Yourself’er, I’ve spent much of my life learning new skills like beekeeping, carpentry, mechanics, construction, and more. This gives a refreshing break from the days of screen time we all endure.
