On day 357 of 365 Days Wild I spent some time drawing a bee.

The Cranesbill flowers are currently growing quite profusely along the grass verges beside the local lanes, so I collected a handful of sprigs for my bee art. It wasn’t until I looked at them closely that I realized that there are actually two different types of Cranesbill to be found. The larger, brighter pink flowers are, I think, Dove’s-foot Crane’s-bill (Geranium molle), and the smaller, paler flowers are Small-flowered Crane’s-bill (Geranium pusillum).








Once I arrived home I arranged the flowers first around my new bee and then also around some of the bees that I’ve previously drawn.







Have you been inspired by nature recently?
You have to look closely to raise that they are two different flowers!
Your drawings look so amazing. Very realistic.
