Mark and I have been experimenting with catching bees flying around flowers. We tease we need a “trained bee” that is taught to fly to a flower, pretend to collect pollen and then fly off before returning to the same flower.
We have learned a few lessons to make the pictures work. I sat near this flower for about a half hour while the kids played watching a multitude of insects do their jobs. Observing them taught me a lot! Hopefully, we can get out again so Mark has the chance to try another picture this year.
What a stunning picture!
