It was +28 C and the asters were full of honey bees. Note: the accumulation of yellow substance on the honey bees legs are (what I call) pollen sacks: "Honey bees collect pollen in specialized structures on their hind legs called pollen baskets, or corbiculae. These are concave cavities lined with stiff hairs where the bee packs the collected pollen, mixed with some saliva, to carry it back to the hive. This nutrient-rich pollen is a primary food source for the colony's larvae."
