Spot the bees that are new on the job - pollen all over themselves. Older bees with more experience manage to avoid that and put the pollen in their leg sacs.
They do seem attracted to dandelions don't they? Dandelions certainly show them up in their true colours too.
dandelions are great food for pollinators
I always take a closer look at any dandelion patch I come across
