Delphiniums and Bumble Bees

The biggest bumble bees seem to be attracted to our delphiniums.  It’s great fun to get the camera out and take some shots of them buzzing around and gathering nectar.

  1. Hank, My delphiniums didn't do well this year, so it's nice to see yours looking so lovely. -Jean

  2. Thanks for the comment, Jean. I'll post a pic of the whole row of them. They did do really well this year. Seems they like the long hours of daylight that our latitude brings them, and also the cool nights.
