Covered in pollen!

I had a most enjoyable Sunday at home. I had to make 25 wedding invites, which took me all day while sitting in the garden. However, it would have taken a considerably shorter time if I hadn't been photographing the bees, bugs and various guinea pig antics that caught my eye. I was sitting next to the hollyhock, and the bumblebees were buzzing in and out. This chap sat for some time pulling his legs over his pollen-covered body, seemingly trying to loosen the pollen off his 'fur' - maybe his fellow bees hadn't told him his job description!
