Bumble bees

There are plenty of bumble bees in my parent's garden. Peacefully they gather nectar for hours. For some reason they all get stuck on the ugliest flowers when I would prefer them to sit for ages on bright blue, red or yellow flowers. I guess they go for the best quality nectar/pollen? They will collect nectar from pretty flowers too but they do it so quickly that I just can't keep up with my camera. I think I have to start thinking of buying a macro lense to get sharper photographs of close-ups.

First person to let me know what the name of the below flower is will get a photo! Biology is not one of my stronger points... :-)
