Azz? 
Nice captures. I too like 3 & 4, although I'm not exactly sure what's going on with the last image.
I'm amazed you have so much bee activity already in the midlands already. I haven't seen a single insect yet this year.

Can't wait to get the bees back - they kept me amused all summer last year!
So far we have had one solitary lady bird and thats it.

Nice shots - and as the others have already said - it's a nice change after the winter we're 'still' having.
