The butterflies on the buddleia are too quick for me to photograph but this bee was happy to pose for a photo. I've noticed before the pollen on the bees legs as you can see in this photo and decided to google why this happens. I'm not familiar with the anatomy of bees so was surprised to discover that bees have 'pollen baskets' on the outside surface of their hind legs where the pollen they collect is stored.

Great pic. I agree, butterflies are just too quick.
