Bees still busy

Despite the obvious onset of autumn the bees, bumble and honey, are still finding plenty of flowers.
 Sunflower "Ruby Queen" - about 2m tall has multiple stems so needs good support.
Globe thistle is a bonus at this time of year.  This is one plant and,
until I arrived with my camera ,was buzzing with bees!
This plant can become rather invasive and needs splitting every
Autumn if you don't want it to romp all over everything else.

QB is off to make up 11 shallow, thin wax frames to take to Yellow hive on the heather.

QB buzzzzzzzzzzzzz
