Several years ago I had a bush that produced 1000's of small powder puff
looking blooms. One day I was in the backyard doing something rather
close to this bush when I heard angry buzz, buzz, buzz. I looked and there
were two bumble bees, stumbling around like you said, challenging each
other to the rights to this bush. Both were so laden with pollen on their
legs they could barely get any lift to take off and my first thought was
"there's more than enough pollen for everybody."
