Our Summer Friends - (view larger)

The hum of the bees while we search for favorite flowers is not as

intense as it used to be, but slowly the population seems to be

coming back. I used to fear being stung just a little 'too much', now I

barely think of it, just so glad to even see one that I might get a good

shot of. (thanks for dropping by, Gail)

I see our little frined!...The colour tones,light and details are very well and eye-catching!Thnx alot for taking and sharing!...Best regards(Bobby).

Hello dear Bobby, I hope this finds you well, so very far away. Your comments alway cheer me, and are a welcome sight whenever I log on. I am a bit behind on a few photos, but hope to catch up soon. Thankyou for dropping by and for your interest and encouragement.

Kind and warm regards, it is morning here so I will wish you a good morning just the same. Sincerely, Gail

A lovely depiction of a busy bee at work, with a nice touch of light on his wings. Its also really encouraging to hear that the population seems to be increasing. Recent years has seen real concern for thier demise and as they are the principal pollinators for all major food crops, their importance cannot be  overstated. Beautifully done Gail!

Best Regards

Alf

Hi Gail,

One of all time favorites, the honey bee.

What a devoted worker that puts forth a tremendous effort to pollinate the plants and to contribute to the construction of the hive and well being of his family.

A very nice image capture.

Best Regards,  Mike

I can see you are getting some interesting shots with your macro. I am allergic to bees, so I would never get this close. I really like the detail in the wings. Very nice work Gail. I like it. Best wishes from B.C. Linda

Very sorry I missed  your comment last year, but glad I saw it now. Many thanks for your visit!!

Warmest regards, Gail
