Yellow, yellow everywhere!
We all know bees are the good creatures. The ones we need we should take care of. No denying here.
But did you ever observe one during the spring boom? The flowers bloom like crazy and produce tons of pollen. And bees (and other flying friends) are like drunk with all the food around. Food on their faces, on their legs, on their buts! And no time to clean. Must get more food!!
This is the best time to shoot them. They are so busy they just don't give a flying ... they don't care I mean :)
And even if you miss one, another one will come.
Just make yourself comfy and wait. Some flowers are also more attractive to the pollinators than others. Would be handy to have those around. But if not - just pick any blooming lawn. They will be there.
As a group shot a a bonus.
Again yellow and again bees. It is a very trendy mix every spring.

Wow,great macros...i like bees but at the same time i have a fear of them. As you know they have needles to protect theirself and sometimes they think photographers are enemy. :)
You shouldn't be afraid. They will not harm you unless the feel in danger (when you try to grab one or stick you hand in the hive). They will also die after they sting, so they wouldn't do that if they really have to.
They are friendly creatures :)
Lovely photography shots. And I am always scared of the bees.
Thank you :)
Oh yeah, that color combination is making my depressing day better, beautiful pictures!
Is it raining there? Is it? Please lets swap!
No, it wasn't raining, I was upset and depressed about going to the bank and the unbearable heat, I wish it was raining or at least cloudy, good time to take pictures, I'm already waiting for the rain. 🤩
People normally complain when it is raining.
Send them to the bank in heat when they change their minds :P
Nice photos friends. ;) They look very live.
Thank you very much :)
To be out in nature now is simply wonderful. Everywhere it hums and buzzes and the colours are beguiling. Very nice pictures you show us here.

these bees scare me. and you're right now they are everywhere. everywhere is yellow and I love this color. congratulations for your successful shots.
They are not scary... just hungry :D
Grandpa had bees. I sold em 😁, after he died...
We had bees too :)
Good morning, you are right, I have been observing the behavior of the bees now when the flowers begin to appear and the small ones do not fly, they connect so much with their food that they do not look to the sides lol. Greetings from Venezuela.
Exactly. And we have plenty of time to take photos :)
These brought a warm smile to my face. Thank you.
Awww my pleasure :)
