The phacelia field near us is going to seed, but it was under planted with crimson clover and that is now flowering. A species similar to bush vetch is also climbing through the thick growth. I’ve seldom seen so many bees in one place - they’re loving it! 🐝

Looking into the sun across the field with mauve phacelia in the foreman’s many red dots of clover fading into the distance.
The green leaves and tendrils of a vetch with a single mauve and pink pea-like flower, set against a field of red-topped clover.
