Bumblebees

I was photographing these beautiful pink flowers when - above - a bumblebee came flying up out of nowhere (as they typically do) and landed on the flowers. I continued to fire away with the shutter when another bumblebee flew up and landed on the back of the first bumblebee. Immediately they both "fell" away in a clinch of sorts, as photographed below.

Now this is a Bumblebee...

Unlike the bumblebee look-a-like, I know exactly what this fella is! I love these guys. This bumblebee was finding a feast in the now mostly spripped wild plum flowers.

If it is, it's not the type of bumblebee I usually see. A cool photograph either way, though, I think!
