BEES

Bees are insects with wings closely related to wasps and ants, known for their role in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the western honey bee, for producing honey. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea. They are presently considered a clade, called Anthophila. There are over 16,000 known species of bees in seven recognized biological families.[1][2] Some species – including honey bees, bumblebees, and stingless bees – live socially in colonies while most species (>90%) – including mason bees, carpenter bees, leafcutter bees, and sweat bees – are solitary. - Wikepedia

For 'Macro Mondays' theme of 'Pick Two'.

'Yellow - Paper' and/or 'Blue - Flower'.

 

Sometimes I can leave the weekly challenge until the last minute, take a shot, and be reasonably pleased.

 

Not this week!

 

Started with an idea that morphed into something rather different, and then ran into all sorts of issues - lighting, that isn't unusual, then paper quality and my restricted manual dexterity.

 

The very small glass bottle rests on a sheet of tissue paper that extends into and makes the background. The paper came as part of the wrapping around a 'Father's Day' present and just had to find a use! But the creases and wrinkles ................... !

 

The 'Welsh Ring' flowers were made from thin strips of paper cut from the page of a catalogue - great colour and with a sheen. But because it was coated paper it didn't wrap around a paintbrush handle smoothly, and the 'flowers' aren't too even. As for getting, let alone arranging, five flowers in such a small jar I must be completely mad for trying.

 

After five attempts at setting up this little picture, I've now decided to do something more sensible like drinking a mug of tea.

Le soleil commence à s'éclipser et cette fleur d'Azalée du jardin attend avec impatience le lendemain matin pour s'épanouir entièrement. Sa couleur rosée contraste bien avec les feuilles qui l'entourent. #Macro #MacroMondays #PickTwo #PinkFlower

This Dorset Damselfly is my choice for this week's Macro Mondays group theme of Pick Two - List A3 Delicate & List B2 Insect - HMM

#MacroMondays #PickTwo a possibility. This is the rim of one of the two baskets I used and one of the eight or so possibilities for the theme for today, 6/14. I’ll probably put them all up and then dither

Macro Mondays: This week's theme is "Pick Two"

From the lists I selected "Blue" and "Paper"

 

This small, coiled strip of blue construction paper is 1-3/4" high.

With a nod to my favorite shade of blue 💙~~ "Yves Klein" blue.

Last Minute add to MM because I have been so busy. The only reason I remembered was because my son broke this little candy cane 😅

The 6/14/21 Macro Mondays theme was to pick two items from two lists posted in the group. I chose Metallic and Basket.

 

This image is of a wire egg basket, cobwebs included, that was used on the poultry farm on which my wife Sammy was raised during the 1940s and 50s. See it in the first comment.

Looking close on Friday! - theme of May 3, 2019 - hobby

 

Happy Friday everyone!

I will be browsing late in the evening as I am still "on the road"

 

This is a very close up of my sparkling turquoise green juggling club (and a hint of a red one in the background)

 

This club has a so called "European decoration": the iridescent coating covers only parts of the club - the middle of the corpus (here on the left side) remains white.

Two delicate insects.

 

Ovipositing large red damselflies on a new garden pond. These are among the most common of the damselflies which differ from dragonflies by being smaller and more delicate and by holding their wings along their body when at rest rather than perpendicular to it.

Thank you for your time, faves and comments, it's much appreciated

HMM!

.....a little black ant.

Sédum Acré or Stonecrop: Are little, about 6 inches tall, plants that I found at the junction of two forest lined roads. The ground is very thin and there are only a few types of little plants that grow there. I noticed this one only about two weeks ago and at that time they didn't have flowers, only buds. I was curious to see the flowers and went back this afternoon to take a look.

Okay - this I figured can be any one of:

Fuzzy-Plant

Twisted-Abstract

Speckled- Plant

Happy Macro Monday!

Probably pushing the boundaries here for this weeks Macro Monday's theme of Take Two. Let's see how it goes tho :)

 

A metallic 'looking' insect 'beetle' 😄

 

Quite a rare find for the UK as these are generally found in North America. They feast on Dogbane leaf and I have none of that in the garden! I found this scuttling around on the Delphinium!

ODC - flower or floral
