Texture Thursday: Busy bees

“How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour, And gather honey all the day From every opening flower.”  Isaac Watts

“Listen! O, listen! Here come the hum the golden bees Underneath full blossomed trees, At once with glowing fruit and flowers crowned.”  James Russell Lowell

Spring is in full bloom in our backyard; this is the greenest our yard has looked in a long time!  I have no idea what kind of plant this is, but it's now blooming like crazy and bringing all of the bees out (I also have a sneaking suspicion that it's probably the cause of Sammy's ever-present runny nose).
