Fafe, Portugal - 2018.06.02

Years ago I planted a package of Texas Blue Bonnets and Russell Hybrids. They've reseeded and multiplied. The bees are going nuts over them! Of course with all the rain we've had they're waist high!

I had to upload this because I love the stripe of pollen down his back.

Observation.org identified her as a red mason bee. I don't know. Question b is if she tries to warn me, by lifting her middle leg, or if she is just very agile.

Bee - Cleethorpes.

One of our hives swarmed and landed conveniently in our mulberry tree. Nice and easy to collect. A local man stopped by and asked if he could have them as he used to keep bees back in Lebanon. We were happy to find a home for this lot.

One of the first images I shot with my new Canon 60mm f2.8 Macro lens. Taken in the back garden on a bright summer afternoon. Hmm.

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to view, comment, and fave my photo.

Trying to identify bees in a region where we have over 400 varieties is a little tricky. I think this might be bombus flavifrons - a yellow headed bumblebee native to the area.

This was on a dandelion. Another Colletid? (no Halictidae...thanks Bernhard)

have a beautiful weekend!!!☺️

This was an experiment to see how altering the settings on the camera affected the sharpness of the bee.

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.
