Bees Everywhere!


Yesterday was another 'bee' kind of day.
This time they weren't sleeping - they were busy!
Gathering pollen from the flowering thistles ...


There must be more than enough pollen to go around!

  2. Beautiful photographs again Clytie. I dont know how much the bees can collect from a thistle flower, but sometimes they gather almost ten bees on one.
