Description
A honeybee is shown busy at work, collecting nectar from the purple flowers of a plant. With wings slightly blurred in motion, the bee's fine hairs and striped abdomen are clearly visible against the soft focus of greenery in the background.
I captured this photo while sitting on my deck watching the bees pollinate the flowers in my planter boxes. I watched while this bee finished collecting pollen from the lower flowers and stood up on her hind legs, using the two front legs to pull herself up to the higher flower. It all happened in an instant, and I feel very lucky to have caught this moment in time.
