Definitely a Cotoneaster of some sort. They can be evergreen, semi-evergreen, or deciduous, depending on the variety. Flowers are either white or pink, and berries can be red, orange or yellow. Various shapes and sizes, from prostrate ground cover to large shrubs and trees.

Cotoneaster lacteus then, judging by the size...

I wish I could show you all how many bees are on it, I can hear the buzzing from 10 metres away

I know exactly what that's like Tony - one of my customers has a cotoneaster franchetti and that's quite noisy to be near currently! Bees love cotoneaster flowers, whatever variety they are.

« Is this friend or foe?? Seen on one of the sunflower plants this morning.
Most likely one of the Cotoneasters - Cotoneaster lacteus I suspect. Ever noticed berries on it?
