Not sure if this is a Carnolian or Italian Honey Bee at work on the sunflower. They are the two predomiant honey bees used in this area. View large to see pollin on the body.
This morning on my way to take pics of my favorite ospreys, I ran into this pollinator field. I never made it to the ospreys.
European Wasp (Vespula germanica)
Apologies for posting a Euro Wasp two days in a row but there wasn't much else around in the garden today. It was busy flying from flower to flower on the Ivy. I didn't want to get too close so this image has been cropped.
Happy Wing Wednesday!
Common Hoverfly (Melangyna viridiceps)
With the Jade, Lavender and Daisies all in bloom I am seeing good numbers of Hoverflies this last week.

Saturday Self Challenge - photographing a bee.
Spotted when I was walking Ross at Coombe Hill yesterday, there were several bees pollinating the thistles. I took several photos, this was the best one
African Carder Bee (Pseudoanthidium repetitum)
It initially seemed there wasn't any insects around the garden today. So I spent some time, which is unusual for me to do, and then there seemed to be insects and spiders everywhere!
Great pollinators, it is fantastic to see them very close with our macro lenses. usually very busy to care while we photograph them, but you always have to be careful specially if you don't know if you allergic to them.
Something awesome:

Photography is my passion, and nature photography is my favorite.
I have been in Explore for more that a hundred times, and it is an awesome experience to have your photos showcased in such a special way.
I'm in many groups, and I only add my photos to them if they are not private.
I thank your for coming today, for leaving a comment, and make a favorite of yours this photo, (if that is the case) thanks again!
The best part of this forum is the contacts and friends that I have made over the years, that have the same passion for this art that is called photography!
Martha,
I finally got outside. it was windy during golden hour, and the pollinators were just briefly lighting. This is the result...
