Bee in Flight

[Kerro]

I am fairly new to this site and am enjoying checking everything out.
I do have a bee in flight that I'd like to share. It was taken a long time ago but it is still one of my favourite photos

Nice. He's looking very clean; must be his first flower of the day

 

[Kerro]

Yes Steve he is looking pretty clean even though it was after lunch when I got him. I was surprised how clear he was.

Really impressed by the first one, I'm having a very high delete rate for my attempts on flying bees.
I think bees going to smaller flowers don't get that 'dirty', while visiting larger ones where they submerge into the flower they get really dusted. In the garden I can see bees dusted with the same color as the big flowers like dahlias and sunflower, but never lavender

Well done, beautiful capture. Flying bees have, so far, been beyond my skill level.

Thanks Niels and JAS. Glad you like my bee shots. They are hard to get but I now have the Canon R5 so maybe I'll get a few more keepers.
