Bees were flying in and out of the Sunflower, conditions must have been just right. All I had to do was wait a little bit.
More bees with the Antique Microscope Extreme Macro rig.
Heaps of bee activity at the moment, plan to harvest some honey next weekend, big honey flow at the moment.
Nice shot of the forward ocelli in the centre of his forehead, one of three simple eyes they use for navigation, with the two compound eyes to see stuff. Bears and such.
I found a bee today doing just what bees do best...beeing :)
He seemed quite happy!

I've been bouncing around of late in regard to my photographic interests. Birds, sunsets, macro, landscapes, and more. Truth be told, I am in a bit of a creative lull at the moment. Decided to do some macro work today, and here is a bee buzzing around a clover flower. Not sure what that thing is on its leg, although my wife said it is honey? Best viewed (L) for full detail.
Thanks for all the faves, comments, and views. Much appreciated~!
First bee macro of 2016, from today, May 16.
Not many blossoms from which to choose yet, except for massive numbers of daisies. And not many bees either. This one found a different flower while I was nearby.
Some honey bees enjoying the nectar from a milkweed flower. As far as I can tell, the wild honey bees are doing as well as ever. I'm not sure what kind of milkweed this might be - it looks different from the common milkweed but I don't see a good match in the Kansas wildflower guidebook.
A bee orchid at Summer Leys, I stumbled across this by accident whilst taking photos of pyramidal orchids
