    The bee blows the trumpet on a wrong end.

    Our Aussie spring wildflowers are a little way off yet ... so it's great to see your FAAAABULOUSLY coloured trumpets!

    Nice shots. Did you or maybe you still do--pull off a flower and suck out the yummy nectar? I did/do. LOL MB

    Because our country home's walls were once inundated with bees, I hate the bee's buzz, but I love to see them busy doing their job on flowers as lovely as these.

    Honeysuckle! Brings back such memories of childhood as we use to like to pull out the centers and eat the sweet nectar.

    So pretty. I'll bet they attract hummingbirds too.
