Next time you drizzle honey on your toast, remember this: 🍯🐝

One teaspoon of honey is the lifetime work of about 12 bees. To make that tiny spoonful, they collectively visit roughly 30,000 flowers and fly around 750 miles.

It’s amazing how such small creatures can achieve something so sweet and remarkable. Let’s take a moment to appreciate the hard work of our buzzing friends! 🌸✨

UK veterinarians are warning about the risks of acorns and conkers being ingested by your dog while out on walks this fall. Acorns contain high levels of tannins which are considered toxic to dogs and can cause blockages, and in some cases liver or kidney failure — they also present a significant choking hazard when swallowed.

Acorns typically fall from trees between September through December in some parts of the UK each year.
Vets are urging dog owners to take caution when out on walks, and observe the areas your walking in. Watch your dog on these walks to ensure they don’t accidentally eat an acorn.
