Bumble Bee.

 

This one was trapped in our screened in porch. I caught it in a glass and set it free. It sat for a bit on our deck rail giving me a chance to get some pictures. Shot is hand held single exposure.

in 2009 it was an educa year for these and there was hundreds of these everywhere l went for my daily picture

I have no idea what kind of insect this is, but it was enjoying a visit on a daisy. Taken at the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge. With the Raynox in front of the 200-500.

I was hiding in the mint, trying to capture a nice macro of the bees who love the flowers and along came this big guy who decided the florets on the bottom of the bloom were more tasty...as a consequence, I was unable to see him/her long enough to identify the species...but definitely a pov that lets you see what it's like, down under a bee.

Imaginons avoir les mêmes facultés que la sauterelle !!!

There are times I kneel down and study an insect for so long that I wonder what they are seeing as well. This bug-eyed beauty was quite willing to stay motionless for a prolonged period of time. I'm guessing I was quite mesmerizing! )

This insect was resting on a fir cone, in cool enough temperatures to keep it still for me to take a close shot.

The not so local ladybugs ( they were imported from Asia) are moving into our house every year around late October early November. I love insects but not a big fan of having them all over the house ;-(

Here are some more information about them:
