Unfortunately, this poor bee didn't see the signs and thus paid the ultimate price - DEATH.
Not too long ago, I was stung by one of these and it was extremely painful!

Said bee with no name
I work best in the rain
Amongst the flowers so tall
Between the tears that fall
In the sweetness of flight
Beneath our star so light
Beside the colors I tame
Said the bee with no name
I'm happy to see my blanketflower plant returning this summer, much stronger than last year. It's been a hit with the pollinators.
A female Tawny Mining Bee (Andrena fulva) in our Staffordshire garden yesterday.
It was a great day for bee photography. The day before had been warm and sunny and lots of bees had been active. They it turned chilly and some of those that ventured out got "stranded"; waiting for some sunshine. An opportunity not to be missed!
...and I need to wear my climbing helmet on a simple walk with camera. A week ago Sunday at the end of our trail walk I tripped onto concrete. I have learned to fall and roll, mostly, but did land on my head a bit too hard.
Thus, while taking it slower this week, I'll post this from 29 May, 2018. The date shown on the exif data is wrong. The new camera needed a tiny new battery for the date.
I hope you take care if you're looking up or at birds or bees or composing a landscape photo while walking. Only the lens cap and my head chipped a bit, and we can't replace the head.
This sleepy bumblebee was in the middle of the path in Regent's Park on a cloudy, cold morning. It was in danger of being accidentally crushed as people walked along, so my lovely daughter rescued it to the grass by the path using a sycamore seed! (She is kind, but not brave enough to touch a bee!)
Bee's are fascinating me at the moment, there are so many different types and all heavily laden with different coloured pollen hanging form their legs. Not an easy task to capture but these tend to linger a fraction longer for a shot !

Well into the dreary part of fall now, so this shot is a colourful memory of a summer that lasted will into September...

This bee was harvesting the pollen from the flowers. I had the 100mm macro, which doesn't have as much reach as the 200, so I had to get much closer for these shots. Fortunately, honeybees aren't too distracted by us humans.
Autumn always seems to present the best opportunities to photograph bees on flowers. At this time of the year, the colors are so vibrant. On this day we saw bees, monarch and buckeye butterflies along with an occasional hummingbird. It is a great time of the year.
megachilidae. In my garden.
African Carder Bee 5 - 8 mm long.
This name is derived from the fact they collect downy fibres from various plants to make nests...how about that!
