MadSnapper said...

they really are cut when seen up close like this and they have enough fuzzy stuff to carry lots of pollen to other plants.

You have some busy little friends and you've captured them at their work perfectly.

You captured them so well.

The honeybee looks like she has been working very hard, the edges of her wings are a little tattered. Cute bumblebee, too, and the last flower is such a pretty red.

Leora said...

Oh, happy bees! Lovely flowers they are feasting upon.

I've notice ours here are really attracted to color too.

You do such nice macros. I recently tried some macros of bees, but they were all lousy, so I deleted them.

Stacy said...

I love the vibrant color of the last photo. And the first photo is outstanding! All of the little details of the bee are perfect photographed! Great work!
