Description
A large bumble bee on a Borage Plant in the garden.
Borage (Borago officinalis), also known as a starflower, is an annual herb. It is native to the Mediterranean region and has naturalized in many other locales. It grows satisfactorily in gardens in the UK climate, remaining in the garden from year to year by self-seeding. The leaves are edible and the plant is grown in gardens for that purpose in some parts of Europe. The plant is also commercially cultivated for borage seed oil extracted from its seeds.

Morag, Beautiful capture of this bumble bee on this plant feeding. Spectacular details of this bumble bee with great details and a great blurred out version in the background to have the viewer concentrate completely on the bumble bee and the plant. Excellent photo, fav, voted, google and tweet promoted
