Honey Bee in March with pollen combs.
To celebrate the upcoming of spring. Thought a series on the first signs of spring may be in order. Here is the second image of the series.
A bee facilitates pollination, fertilization and formation of embryos. As times to fly back to the bee hive comes, the bee must bring back some pollen. So it uses its pollen combs to slide pollen to the concave sacs found on the hide legs. These are called pollen baskets. To make sure that the granules will reach the hive intact, bees combine them with sticky enzymes from their stomachs. They carry their pollen in form of a round ball which is normally seen stuck on their rear leg
On doing a bit of beach combing today……We came across this cruise ship laying off the English South coast all abandoned, the CraZyGang decided to call a meeting to decide if the Sheltie land rules apply, …..i.e anything lost dropped or misplaced, that looks like fair bounty, is far game and immediately becomes the property of the Sheltie that is first on the scene……Now the big question is…Does that Sheltie law apply to maritime law and this abandoned ship!!!!….And if the answer is yes (and the overwhelming view is ~yes~ it is) just how are we going board her without getting the paws wet…..And I hope dear reader that it is not lost on you, that you have noticed that when that question was asked, that all eyes were too fall on me…… and to think that silly me thought that they were waiting for me to take a photo… Ummmmm….So let me get this straight… all I have to do now is swim across to the ship….Somehow get myself on deck…..Lower one of the small boats mounted on the deck….Row back….Pick you all up…..Row back…..Use the hoist I lowered the boat down with, to hoist you all on deck…..You have got to be joking…..You will never persuade me to do that …..What’s that….You’re tell me where you have hidden the beer fund money….I do it!!!!!!
And please don’t worry about the lockdowm…as this photo was taken last year, and kindly found by Halo to put on line as we have nothing new at the moment…x
This golden wild comb was found in a hive roof in the summer. Hubby the beekeeper, decided to cut it out and melt it down to recover honey, wax and the roof. He held the roof up in the mid afternoon sun in early January which gave the wax a beautiful golden glow.

Inspired by Flickr, i set to try this for myself.. Grabbed this beautiful old lens that i have been carrying with me for the last 24 years. It was passed to me when my father passed away and i finally put it to some use.
Unfortunately because of my awkward positioning while taking the shot, it is not as pin sharp as i wanted.. Maybe an ISO bump and a faster shutter speed would have gave me the result i wanted.. But, you live and learn :)
