Saturday 22nd August 2015 (2)

When the sun decided to come this afternoon I thought I'd take a look at the Bumble Bees in the garden.

I was pleased to identify six species of Bumblebee plus a Hairy Footed Flower bee.

The photos are a of the very few that stayed still long enough to snap.

There was also a couple of "garden" Orb spiders in the garden
