| | | More yellow Flowers to Id please (and the Insects)
Two Different Yellow Flowers that i found on the Chalk Cliff's at Dover on sunday, now i haven't a clue at all about Flowers (never been the green fingered type myself) and i was particually intrested in getting a shot of the Insects, but now i would like to id the Flowers as well, can any one help please
First Question; are the Flowers in the foreground with the un-identified Fly on, the same species as the Yellow Flowers behind? 
Secondly, can anyone tell me what these are please and the species of Bee feeding on them? 
TIA |

Bright yellow one in both photos is Wallflower (garden escape) and the one in the front of the first photo is Alexanders, Smyrnium olusatrum.
Not a clue on the insects! |

Your bee could be Bombus pascuorum - but not the clearest angle for me to ID from (still a bee novice!). As for the fly...  | | |
