Website rangers WWF The bees help flowers and plants in love. It works like this: a male flower has stamens. There's pollen on it. That looks like yellow powder. A bee dives into the flower in search of nectar. The pollen sticks to its fur. The bee then flies to a female flower for even more nectar. It leaves the pollen on its pistil. You call that pollination. This is how a flower is fertilized and new seeds grow. Without bees and other insects, the love between flowers and plants would go terribly wrong and strawberries, tomatoes, watermelons or apples would no longer grow.
I think I may have wrongly named this plant the other day in a posting, Can anyone confirm for me is this a 'Mahonia'
This is another oldie I have let loose the sliders as it happens to bee one of my favourites.
Whether you have a small patio, a large garden, or a window box, growing flowering plants is an effective way to help bees and other pollinating insects.
Pollinating insects need food, water and shelter. They love plants which are rich in nectar and pollen. Nectar contains sugar for energy, while pollen contains protein and oils – forming a balanced diet.

I cannot always ‘Thank’ everyone individually, for their Visits and ‘Faves’ however, I will always try to respond and thank all those that leave a ‘Comment’. If I do not reply to your 'Comment', it is not because I am ignoring you, it's because I have not seen the 'Comment'.
Your 'Comments' do not always appear in 'Notifications' or Flickr mail, so, I am sorry for any delay in responding. Often your 'Comment' is only spotted 'On the Page' on the day, that I see it. (seen ONLY when replying to someone HAS 'Commented' on the image, and I see a notification)
Another bee from my garden - somewhat restricted at the moment due to report writing deadlines looming...
I was thrilled to see every bee-eater but blue-throated during my trip. They are a group of birds I have been dying to see for such a long time due to their beauty. This guy was seen on a boat trip out to the sandspit in Phetchaburi where we saw Malaysian Plovers and white-faced Kentish Plovers.
Pretty hot for the last day of spring/first day of summer - it seems it will be a scorcher this summer.
Our passion flower is doing well this year, the dry conditions are obviously suiting it as it hasn’t been watered at all. The bees are enjoying it too.

Hi there,
Last summer, one of my goals was to try and capture a bee in-flight with my macro lens. This is one of my bizillion attempts.
Thank you for taking the time to look and for leaving me a comment! Have an amazing day!

I dont normally shoot as low as f5 for macro. You can see how some sharpness has gone leaving a softer effect which fortunately I like now its edited :o)
