Bees on hawthorn flowers
The warm weather at the end of May brought on the flowers – and the insects which feed on them.
A hawthorn hedge was covered with flowers, which were attracting a crowd of honey bees.
The bees had already gathered so much nectar that it looked like they would be overloaded for take-off.
The hawthorn nectar (in the combs on their back legs) is a pale straw colour.
