Sunflower

Wandering the garden this morning... noticing the bees are still busy. 

Sunflowers make a gray morning much brighter. 

Happy Wednesday! 

Bees and Crocus

The bees crawl in the center of the Autumn crocus and just wallow around. 

And wait there while I snap their picture.

I needed something to make me smile today. 
This worked.

Sunflower adoration

Yesterday, while the sun was out, a little bee was enjoying the dwarf sunflower on the deck. 

He was quite focused for a while... allowing me time to go in and get the camera. 

The heavy pollen on his legs fascinated me... I hadn't seen a bee so laden this summer. 

It didn't seem to bother his flying at all.
