Sheen Art Fair

The Fair closed last Saturday but some of the shops are still showing exhibits. Some thought it should have lasted longer!

You can see the businesses that participated at: https://sheenartists.com/sheen-art-trail

The Sheen Art Trail was a collaboration between Sheen Artists & East Sheen Village.

Sheen Bees and the Flowering Cherry Tree

The flowering cherry tree at the junction of Richmond Park Road, Sheen Lane and Vicarage Road was donated by the Mortlake with East Sheen Society a few years ago. This spring it has looked splendid with masses of blossom.

Recently our resident apiarist was admiring the tree and noticed quite a few honeybees at work, including a large number of Hairy Footed Flower Bees – both male and female. These are one of the earliest solitary bees to appear in the spring and are very common in this area. A lovely sight.

Today a female could be seen near the top of the tree. (Just about visible if you pretend you are a male and zoom in.)
