Collecting nectar

I spotted this Buff-tailed Bumblebee at work on top of St John’s Wort.

The bright yellow, five petaled flowers of St John’s wort are a real pleasure for the eye to look at and also very much appreciated by bees and butterflies as a rich source of nectar.

Dutch name : Aardhommel op Sint-Janskruid
German name : Dunkle Erdhummel auf Johanniskraut
Latin name : Bombus terrestris / Hypericum perforatum
