"Taste of Honey"

"Honey" in this case is Sweet Hummingbird water and Kentucky Colonel Spearmint (below).
I've never seen a Butterfly drink from a Hummingbird Feeder before today; have you? These 2 Butterflies and a white one
follow me around the yard. It gives a sweet feeling!

*******

"A Taste of Honey" was originally an instrumental.
A vocal version of the song, first recorded by Lenny Welch, became popular
when it was recorded by The Beatles in 1963.
The song is a pop standard written by Bobby Scott and Ric Marlow.
It was originally written for the 1960 Broadway version of the 1958 British play
"A Taste of Honey" (which was also made into a film with the same name in 1961).
Both the original and a cover by Herb Alpert in 1965 earned the song Grammy Awards.
