Honey bee on helenium

Jenny our house guest for the last few days has gone back to Lewes, can't wait for the next visit, either her to us or us to her, whichever is soonest.

Went off to Anglesey Abbey for a walk and to look at the Dahlias which are always worth a visit...

...but the star photograph was this honey bee on the Helenium, I really like the rich colours.

The extras are three of the Dahlias I went to photograph.
