Seems likely they are more "flighty" in the spring and early summer when the flowers are a bit sparser. But if you're patient you'll eventually come across one feeding calmly.

I got the vase for free. It's part of set of 3 glassblown art vases. Got them from a free pile from local estate clear out, a few years ago. I'm good at scoring lots of #freebies & rarely buy anything new.
I picked some #flowers from our #gardens to make a new #bouquet for my Dad's memorial altar. We are doing his one year passing ceremonies on Sunday afternoon.
Pink, purple and blue flowers all out in the garden today.
Very windy but a red tailed bumble bee is still out feeding on the chive flowers #BloomScrolling#bee#flowers
#Jasmine is blooming again. We keep them indoors for 3/4 of year & move outside for late Spring-Summer. Good indoor natural air purifying #plant. Flowers are #edible & used to make tea & fruits used in #Chinese#TraditionalMedicine.
Patch of #nasturtiums attracts many beneficial insects & pollinators.
Fab companion plant for your #EdibleGarden or ornamental garden. Leaves & flowers are #edible.
Grown from mixed, tapped 2022 seeds.
