I don't know what this flower is. It grows in the bar ditches and anywhere else it gets a foothold. I like the way the flowers change from that beautiful fuschia color to the purple as they decay. The bees had to really work at getting down to the bottoms of the blossoms so it was funny to watch them get in and out.
@maggiemae Thank you so much for the information and your comment! I think you must be correct. @helenhall On one of the other photos, the bee is even more immersed, but the background is less pleasing, so I didn't choose it. Thank you very much for your lovely comment. @moonmtnThank you very much! One advantage of the bee having to work so hard to get in and out of the blossom is that one has more time to get the photo! @dkbarnett Thank you so much! I hope to get some more of these now that I have discovered a nearby patch.
