Busy Bee by helenhall

Busy Bee

Describes both him and me.

With a full schedule yesterday, I arrived at a meeting deliberately early yesterday so that I could grab a photo. How organised is that?
So I had 10 minutes to chase bees, marvel at ladybirds and generally keep a check on the time to make sure that the 10 minutes didn't become an hour.

(Spent a lovely evening with friends from Texas who used to live in Bedford before they emigrated... must get them some breakfast now - look forward to viewing your photos later!)
Oh Helen! this is brilliant! A bit close for comfort! But what a shot!...He certainly does look busy!

Your macros are so excellent, well done Helen! And amazing you just had 10 minutes for this - it could indeed very quickly turn into an hour or more!

I think that is the best bee photo I've seen on this site. Fav!

@janemartin @paulavdmerwe @daisyditch @evalieutionspics @kerosene @moonmtn @gaylewood You are all too generous with your comments but I do appreciate them just the same!

@kerosene I would have no problem spending an hour with the lens stuffed into a flower which is why much of the 10 munutes was spent checking my watch!

@gaylewood Yes - we see them once every couple of years. We always have to have an indian takeaway since they say that indian food just isn't the same in the states!

Well, it was 10 minutes very well spent. Superb detail and a fav. I never realised bees were so hairy until I started 365 - this one is a beauty.

@flowerfairyann I had no idea of the detail and intricacy on so many thing before looking through my lens. Today, I even saw the eyes on greenfly! Thank you for your kind comment and Fav Ann.
