I couldn't decide between these two bee shots. These are from when I went up to Duluth. I had my first bridal shower today. It was fun. I'm not much for being the center of attention though. Thanks everyone for sticking with me through all this busy wedding stuff.
Bee putting necter into a cell, if you look you can see all the necter/honey. Once all the water has evaporated off the necter the bees seal the top of the cells with wax because it is ready and has become honey.
This little bee was a bit damp from the rain, it spent a few minutes crawling over the grass, almost falling off a few times.
When the rain started up again I felt sorry for it and moved it to a sheltered spot, hopefully it managed to dry off.
I searched for an intelligent, mind-expanding quote about bees and found mostly quotes about the Bee Gees and bee's knees. Do you see any knees on this bee?
The off-camera strobe my husband used to photograph this bee did not seem to disturb it after some 20 photos. This bee and others continued to gather pollen as we left. Good stuff, that pollen!
Cooler, windy, and overcast here today. A temporary respite.
I came across this bee hanging out on a butterfly bush. It wasn't moving very much and probably resting. After I came in it changed to a different blossom.

Can't afford a female model but this bee was kind enough to pose for me and I took my best set of Bee shots to date , it was the first time I used so many from a single shoot . I will add a few more later . Hope you like them too . Save the Bee's!
Winter has returned with everything here in PA. Many people were saying that winter was over, but not just yet...The temperatures dropped to the 20's again, and it has been snowing on and off since Monday, and it feels just right, it is only march.
Yes, flowers are always welcomed during the winter months, and here is one I took last year of a very busy bee. To take photos of bugs It was a challenge for me when I started photography some years back, but slowly and preparing myself for it became a favorite for mine. With the help of our macro lens we see their amazing work and activities, and they are amazing! Have you seen the smile of a dragonfly? I'm not kidding, it is awesome :)

Photography is my passion, and nature photography is my favorite.
I have been in Explore for more that a hundred times, and it is an awesome experience to have your photos showcased in such a special way.
I'm in many groups, and I only add my photos to them if they are not private.
I thank your for coming today, for leaving a comment, and make a favorite of yours this photo, (if that is the case) thanks again!
The best part of this forum is the contacts and friends that I have made over the years, that have the same passion for this art that is called photography!
