Another great close up - since we had all the rain the bees seem to have arrived too - lots on my clover covered lawn!

Brilliant close up did the other one leave the dinner table leaving this one to foot the bill or is it doing the washing up lol.

Cannot get enough of these Thistles Bb....i must get some, the Bees seem
drawn to it like a Magnet...no wonder Jane can get a good pic, they seem
too occupied, to care less LOL

LOL...freesia...the bee was on there a good 10 mins..feasting...took no notice of the camera at all..The wildlife seem to love everything we regard as weeds !!
