It's Presidents' Day and far too early for nectarines to burst into bloom.

The unseasonable weather, however, fooled 'em.

Didn't fool the honey bees. Despite the relatively low temperatures--50 degrees--they buzzed into our yard to greet the blossoms and carry the nectar and pollen back to their hives.

A touch of blue sky, some silky pink blossoms and golden honey bees.

Life is good.
