I've had a lot of Bumble Bees by planting Black Oil Sunflower Seeds.

I used an Olympus D-580 Zoom camera. It is a point-and-shoot camera with a built-in non-settable lense. I set the camera on Macro and 3X optical zoom and shot the picture from about 2 feet away. This is the ONLY camera I currently own. I would LOVE a Canon EOS Rebel SLR camera with a 75-300 mm. zoom lense with Image Stabilizer. (But I don't have $2,000.00 or more the setup costs.)

Any squash/pumpkin/ type flower will attrack them..
Every type of Sunflower I had attracked them..
And the Honey Bees' love my Snow drops first thing in the spring, they are just covered with them...
Also clovers and any fruiting tree too...
Hope this helps a bit..

Don't forget to be kind to strangers. For some who have
done this have entertained angels without realizing it.

Thanks!! I looked this up last year and learned that bees love Bee Balm, Coreopisis, Butterfly Bushes. So now I know some other things to get them to land. Cool. I love bees. Dont like wasps though. But my lilacs attract them. I wonder if there is something on lilacs wasps like?
