The long-winged bee and Jethro Tull

This daisy is called Jethro Tull Coreopsis, how fun is that?! I couldn't tell if this bee was Cross Eyed Mary, all I do know is it's wings are so-o-o long!

It does have long wings - maybe it flies better! Great focus on it!

A name to be proud of I reckon, you wouldn't pass that flower by! A super flyer I guess!

@gijsje @365karly1 @maggiemae @mittens @joysfocus @henrir @lynnz @happypat Thank you so much for your comments and fav! I was just so surprised when I read the flower's name at the Garden Center. Loving flowers is not something you would think that classic rock band would even think about. Smile. And those wings.....I'm going to research that, they looked like wasp or hornet wings but that really was a bee working hard gathering pollen.

What a neat close-up - and I love that name of the coreopsis! All I get is the old tickseed coreopsis - nothing fun like yours!

Wow. Wonderful capture, bee & flower...

This is a great closeup. I wonder if that is a cuckoo bee. Definitely not a European bee with those long wings.
