Three approaches to foraging on the herb bed this afternoon: the small double ochre-striped ones tackle the thyme on fast forward, the larger all-ochre thorax bumblebee makes a more thorough job of the chives flowers while the small red-tailed bumblebee – possibly a drone – seems to be settling down for the night on its chive flower.
Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your blog…and I especially appreciate seeing your set-up. Somehow, I thought you used a complicated bunch of supplies, it makes me happy to see how simple it is. Quite inspiring to me, thank you!
