I got up early one morning to take some sunrise photos. On my way home, I noticed these yellow flowers, just full of sleeping bees, all covered in dewdrops.
Just another plug for Pink 2008

Bumble Bee close up (on your pant leg).
Okay so your doing the crazy photo exercise of a bee in flight stop action (previous post) and being aware of all that surrounds you all of the time you notice one of your query as it makes it's way up your pant leg.
Another capture is at hand !!
Just bee happy it didn't choose the low road toward the thick of things or your next capture just may be a literal debriefing.
;)

The next several shots are the studies of bees collecting pollen from our front yard flowers. It turned out that several thousand bees nested in the walls of the house that we lived in. After some amateur attempts to get rid of these bees a part of the bee hive (about 800-1000 bees) migrated into our living room where over 7-10 days it succumbed to poison that the bees have ingested. This experience was second to none...
One would never imagine anything like that looking at this peaceful shot of a worker bee...

My first pair of earrings created using my new Bee Headpins. Honey Colored Resin beads and small bone beads finish the earrings.
A lovely honey bee, Apis mellifera, drinks nectar and collects white pollen from a spring flower. Her long proboscis is injected into the plant to drink in the nectar that the colony will convert to honey after fanning the nectar cells to remove the water content. A colony of honey bees is made up of 90-95% worker bees which are female. She will probably only live about 6 to 8 weeks due to working so hard for the honey flow. In the winter time, they can live longer due to less work.
One third of fruits and vegetables are pollinated by the honey bee. And if you like almonds, well the honey bee is the only pollinator for that nut~so next time you see a honey bee don't swat or kill it, give it a virtual high five or fist pump for all the work she is doing!

England on a summer's day - a bumble bee in the garden. Taken with my 60mm f/2.8 lens.
I must admit I'm quite pleased with this.
Try it on black!
