Crocus and Bee (as seen on ITV's Granada Reports, 23rd Feb 2011)
The warm sunshine today has brought out droves of honey bees into the early flowering crocus beds of one of our local parks (off Pedders Lane). Trust me, working at ground level is hard enough and despite the struggle, I got the "nearly" shot with this one. The bee is not quite 100% in focus, but seeing as I was working at 3 inches off the ground with the camera on a bean bag, I don't think it came out too badly.
