Busy Bees

We've been as busy as bees this weekend putting up the plasterboards in the new kitchen but as plasterboards don't make for a very exciting photo I thought I would show you the busy bees in our garden at the moment as an alternative.

When I first looked across at these large thistles I saw only a few bees but on closer inspection I noticed that each flower head was covered in them.  I tried to count how many but they were flitting around so much -  I think about 25 on average at any one time between the 6 thistle heads - 4 different types of bee as well.  It was really pleasing to see so many.
