Tiny bee on wild blue iris
I used my zoom lens to take this photo so the bee (or is it a WASP?) didn't know I was there, thank goodness.

Very cool picture and I love the color of the flower,
Hugs♥♥♥
It's a good idea to stay quite a distance away from those wasps, just in case they object to having their picture taken.
Wow! That's a great photo.
Great photo..I am not good on bees and wasps yet...funny I did a bee this week too....Michelle
Beautiful pattern and colors on those iris petals. And you got the bee in the shot too!
Looks like a wasp to me? Nice shot. I was trimming along a wall with hand clippers one fall day and disturbed wasps, They are mean. I had no idea I could run that fast, still, I got a few stings.
Now that is just beautiful. Sometimes I use my zoom also. Easier and doesn't make a shadow either.
This is great. MB
Buzzzzzzz
Since its feeding on pollen and not being a predator I'm going with bee. :)
Great catch!

Superb
It is great!
Such a great shot! You really got up close and personal with that one!
'close encounter'....of nature's kind. Love the purple flower.
Duranta Blossom is my macro shot for the week. I hope to see you visit with me if you can. Have a glorious Monday.
Great macro shot!
Glad you didn't get stung regardless of whether it is a bee or a wasp!
How very intriguing and pretty to see the pattern of this lovely flower with an additional bonus of a snacking wasp! The wild Orchid is enchanting in its own habitat.
what a great macro shot, love the vibrant colours here.
Love the color and the bee. Good use of the zoom. ;)
Great detail in this one. Glad the bee/wasp didn't notice you.

Cool! I love it when I accidentally capture pictures of insects! They move so quickly that it's hard to get a good one.
Great capture. :)
Great macro, lovely color and details.
That iris is gorgeous and bees love them. A beautiful capture.
Cool photo! Was trying to capture one the other day but it was not a success. Brrr...
I love this one :)
I almost didn't see the insect, I was too busy looking at the lovely colour of the iris! He IS small, isn't he?
