Description
Apis mellifera on Pentaglottis sempervirens.
This wild flower is considered a weed by some folk, but the intense blue brighten up the shady parts of my garden which has ever growing areas of 'wild' bits, as I get slower.
I was pleased to see that it seems desirable for bees.
Except to crop this there was no postwork at all.

Excellent photo!!
A busy bee and a very attractive wild flower, I like wild flowers and these shots are fantastic.
this is wonderful
He seems hard at work.
super shot
'as I get slower', Nice gentle phrase & great shot!!!
Look at the shoulders on that bruiser! It is really going after that flower. Two lovely images. How can anything so beautiful be considered a weed? I guess a weed is anything humans don't want. Works with people as well.
A surprisingly bright macro of the honey bee doing its genetic thing on the Alkanet, Andrea.
Wonderful captures Andrea. any plant that brings us pleasure cannot be a weed
Excellent shot Doris Brian

Nice shot ,lots of insects about in the sunshine.
Superb capture Andrea. God bless.
Awesome shot ...beatiful wild flower and great detail on the bee.
I love these; and what a wonderful capture of the bee doing his thing on this lovely little flower!
A weed is only a plant that's growing where you didn't want it. I love the sunshiny feel of this ... lovely!
A busy little one.
Both are excellent photos and lovely color on the other side!
