Yesterday morning we took the ferry across the river to Carter's Beach where the sand is so packed, cars drive on it. I have a file full of shore birds (Plovers and Sandpipers) and lovely scenes on a foggy day. However I've never been able to capture good photos of bees, so for this summer journal, here's one that was making a career of doing whatever bees do without leaving the blossom! If you could inactivate their "Kill Button", they'd be so sweet to cuddle!
Gorgeous bee...I am pleased I'm not allergic to them as I often stick my head among the flowers to get photos 😁.....I am assuming I'm still not since being stung a couple of times when young and later in life by a wasp and also bitten by a bull ant 😶
So cute. Dave just brought me back a dead bumble so I could stroke it (to be clear, he didn't kill it for that purpose - he found it dead in the garden!).
@boxplayer I didn't think for a moment that anyone would want to kill one of these little teddy bears! But what a wonderful gesture to bring it to you to pet!!! Just as I'd said...I'd do the same!!)
@gardenfolk Fuzzy Wuzzy was a Bear... Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair...
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't Fuzzy, Was he? I was thinking that from the outset, but it wasn't totally applicable! Ha!
@gardenfolk I suspect you were successful! Looking forward to seeing what you captured! I currently have *so many* pictures, I hardly know where to begin. It wasn't a problem I had during '20 and '21!

So many pictures…that is where I am too! 3500 photos taken in Europe. Over 300 photos on Catalina!
