THREE B's

Big black bee.
Today I start posting a series of shots from those I took during our weekend in Gozo starting on Friday of 10 days ago.
Our Gozo weekend was with my sister and her husband and my brother with his wife, staying at my sister’s second residence in Gozo. Christine and I arrived before the rest and to kill the time I went for a short walk around the area of her residence and found these wild flowers which I was shooting when this big black bee joined me. Of course, I turned my camera on it. This is one shot I took of it.
Many thanks for all your views, comments and favs. Always much appreciated.

I have not heard of black bees, only stripy orange ones! I shall have to go and Google it now......the plant looks like rosemary. Was it fragrant?

[Babs]

This is the first big black bee I have ever seen.

[Dione Giorgio]

@casablanca All i know is that it was growing wild. I don't recall smelling any fragrance.
