The new pic was taken on Thursday 15th May in my garden using macro focus and the bee was very obliging, posing nicely as she flitted amongst the blossoms. I can happily say that today the bush is alive with bumble bees most of which are residing in our roof. Bless them. 🙂 My beloved pointed out that the blossom in question is not rosemary but on the bush next to it. I now have to identify the plant…LOL. Sorry for any confusion. I am now sure it is this: Ceanothus (Californian lilac)
