Pollinators At Work

The title would have been 'Bees At Work' except that the second one looks more like a fly than a bee. All are quickly taken shots of visiting pollinators that happened to appear while I was photographing garden flowers. Hesitate (or change the aperture) and the shot would have been lost. K3 + F135 f2.8 used for all.

Thoughts, comments welcome as usual.

Nope. It's a sunflower (as per title above the picture :wink One of a several flowering at the moment, all from the same packet of 'red sunflower' seeds and all with different markings!

PS: I can now see why you thought it was an osteospermum. Similar, but a big difference in size!
