The Pollen & The Bee


He's rather busy, wouldn't you say?

Two amazing specimens of nature I wanted to share with you today. The first being this very busy 'nature's pollenator' or in more technical terminology, Agapostemon Virescens. And secondly, the intricate pattern woven into a bloom, the yellow Sunflower. I took these images very very late this afternoon on my way back home from a trip to Bardstown for business. As it happens, I couldn't resist doing a late lunch at Isaac's Cafe at Bernheim and spending the last few minutes of my lunch hour taking just a few images along the parameter of the wildflower meadow. The meadow was sadly, and most disturbingly, dry. ENJOY!

  2. Wonderful colors Carol! The green of the bee is a wonderful contrast to the yellows of the flower!

    He is a bright one! It is a messy job, but someone has to do it, Carol. We have clouds today, this photo is a pleasant sight.
