Echinops

We have quite a few of these gorgeous flowers in the garden, and they are really attractive to bees. 

Yesterday evening I noticed that each head had multiple bees at work -  some had 5 or 6 bees on.

We have a couple of bee hotels by the shed, and I guess that's where the bees are living.  We also found one solitary bee making a nest in the screw hole of the wall mounted hose reel.
