The Black Tartarian tree in my back garden is a bird/bee tree. In the spring, when it is glowing with petals as the sun shines, the bees return. Standing as close to the trunk as possible, I let their meditative humming surround me, its calming and strangely comforting warmth connecting me to this earth.
